Reports indicate that Trump’s warning to Musk is a clear sign of the president’s stance on the matter, emphasizing his expectation for loyalty and support from those in his circle.
While Musk has not publicly responded to Trump’s warning, the implications of such a statement are significant given Musk’s status as a prominent figure in the tech industry and his influence on various sectors, including renewable energy and space exploration.
