Elon Musk is going all-in on Donald Trump

At first glance Elon Musk and Donald Trump wouldn’t seem to be natural allies.

One has made cutting greenhouse emissions a major business selling point. The other questions the need to cut emissions at all, denouncing most forms of clean energy as at best unnecessary and at worst destructive.

One wants to move away from fossil fuels and convert all car sales worldwide to electric vehicles. The other believes EVs will be an economic disaster for America and that the nation should to produce and burn more oil.
