President Donald Trump sent a message Friday to Elon Musk: his administration is ready to "take a look" at active contracts between the federal government and the tycoon's companies.
Before boarding Air Force One, the president was specifically asked about some of Musk's government contracts and whether he is considering reevaluating them.
"Well, we'll take a look at everything," Trump replied. "He gets a lot of subsidy, so we'll take a look at that. Only if it's fair, only if it's fair for him and for the country, I would certainly think about it. But it has to be fair."
