Summary

Elon Musk’s powerful role in Trump’s administration has sparked concerns over divided loyalties and unprecedented influence in government.

His plan to slash federal agencies, notably USAID, risks undermining America’s diplomatic, economic, and security interests domestically and abroad.

Meanwhile, his booming Tesla operations and extensive financial ties with China have significantly boosted his wealth and global market position.

Critics and lawmakers warn that prioritizing personal gain over national security may erode U.S. influence, inadvertently empowering rival powers and destabilizing international order.
