There are lots of consequences to this week’s election, ranging from economics, to diplomacy, to outright freedom. But I want to focus on one in particular, what it means for Elon Musk.
It’s quite possible that had Musk not become actively involved in Trump’s campaign after the first assassination attempt, Trump wouldn’t have won. It’s certain that, had he won, it would have been much closer, not the landslide it turned out to be. And had Musk not bought Twitter earlier, thus disrupting the Democrats’ message-control strategy, Trump’s chances of winning at all would have been much, much lower.
