Elon Musk, owner of X (formerly Twitter) and CEO of Tesla, is positioning his social media platform to support President-elect Donald J. Trump, leveraging his influence to push a conservative agenda, as reported by The New York Times. Analysts, including Dan Ives of Wedbush, suggest that Tesla's autonomous vehicle technology could be fast-tracked under Trump's administration, potentially valuing Tesla's AI division at $1 trillion. Ives stated, "Autonomous is going to get fast-tracked in our opinion, and that is significant," adding, "That's worth $1 trillion alone in terms of the AI piece to Tesla." This strategic alignment is seen as a significant move by Musk, with Ives calling it "a poker move for the ages." Meanwhile, MSNBC's Chris Hayes referred to Musk as the "Co-President" in a critique of Musk's approach to free speech on the platform. Additionally, the first episode of "Saturday Night Live" following the election, hosted by Bill Burr, featured sketches highlighting the evolving political landscape, including Dana Carvey debuting his impression of Musk declaring, "I run the country now!" and satirical praise for Trump with the line "We've been with you all along."
