Elon Musk’s companies have already benefited financially from President Trump’s win. Tesla’s stock price has surged since the election, and SpaceX has won several new contracts from the government. These developments suggest that Musk is well-positioned to profit from Trump’s presidency.
Musk has a long history of supporting Trump. In May 2016, he said that he would “probably” vote for Trump if he ran for president. He has also praised Trump’s policies, such as his proposed cuts to taxes and regulations.
Some observers have criticized Musk for his support of Trump. They argue that Musk is giving legitimacy to a dangerous and divisive figure. However, Musk has defended his support of Trump, saying that he believes Trump is “a good guy” who will be “good for America.”
It remains to be seen how Trump’s presidency will affect Musk’s companies in the long run. However, it is clear that Musk is already benefiting financially from Trump’s win.
