He's the best-known business guy in America, and he's one of the richest people in the world.
It’s not that he's giving money to DeSantis. It’s that he's associating the governor with "getting things done."
Isn't that what so many politicians "can't" do these days?
Musk is very much a man of the future: exactly what DeSantis wants to be.

"Get things done." Grow, don't shrink.
If that’s what business does for Republican politics, it’s all good!
