The exciting race for the US presidential election has reached its final stage, where Donald Trump has taken a huge lead. Meanwhile, his staunch supporter and billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has shared his views praising Trump’s economic policies. On this occasion, Musk wrote in a post on his social media platform X, “America is a nation of makers. Soon you will all have the freedom to build.” Expressing happiness over Trump’s lead, Musk shared a picture in which he is seen holding the bathroom sink in the US President’s office. In the caption of this picture, he wrote, “Let that sink in,” which became a topic of much discussion on social media.
Musk also shared a photo of a rocket launch, saying that “the future is going to be tremendous.” However, Musk’s electoral involvement has also been surrounded by controversies. He has faced criticism for not attending a hearing on allegations of paying money to registered voters, which experts have seen as an attempt to buy votes. In addition, his activities are also being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and his regular contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin has raised national security concerns.
Musk now leads America PAC, a super PAC supporting Trump’s get-out-the-vote effort. While he has added new advisers and tried to improve numbers, despite early struggles, some Republican officials are questioning how effective the PAC will be in the crucial ground game. If Trump wins this election, it could ease regulatory challenges for Musk’s companies, particularly Tesla.
