Turns out America elected Elon Musk, too
US voters re-elected Donald Trump. At the moment, it looks like they also elected Elon Musk. He's acting like a shadow president, Peter Kafka writes.
Summary
Elon Musk, having endorsed and campaigned for Donald Trump, is now acting as a “shadow president,” advising on policies and personnel, and joining Trump on calls with world leaders.
This unprecedented relationship between the world’s richest man and the leader of the free world raises concerns about the influence of wealth on government.
While both Trump and Musk have incentives to continue their partnership, their volatile personalities and differing expertise may lead to a breakup in the future.

Nay, when Apartheid ended he saw no ground for his business(es) in South Africa. So he moved to America. More people there to work for nothing but his wealth and their 'American Dream'!
What? Musk moved to Canada in 1989 when he was 18 to avoid national service.
Apartheid didn't end until a couple of year after that.
He's a massive bellend, and a huge leech on society with all of his government subsidised businesses, but thats not the same as making up reasons for his move.
Ask his (ex-)employees. They didn't get all the money (yet) for their work. ?!!?!?
What are you talking about?
These are his businesses in South Africa that he closed when he was 18 and moved to Canada before Apartheid ended?
