Elon Musk's Big Bet on Trump: What's Next?

Elon Musk has put a lot of money and effort into supporting Donald Trump's presidential campaign. With Trump's win, it's worth looking at what this means for Musk and his companies, especially Tesla. Musk has donated almost $119 million to a political action committee backing Trump. On the plus side, this might boost Tesla's stock, but there are also risks. Government support for electric vehicles could change, and that could affect Tesla. Musk has said he's not worried about this, though.
Also, Trump might be more open to Musk's ideas about self-driving cars. But there are other issues, too. A possible trade war with China could hurt Tesla. And if Trump asks Musk to help cut government waste, that could distract Musk from running Tesla. Musk's other companies, like SpaceX and X, might not change much under Trump. But overall, Musk has a lot to think about with this big bet on Trump.
