Elon Musk's relationship with former President Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom has been turbulent. Despite previously criticizing Trump as a 'stone-cold loser,' Musk recently endorsed him and pledged significant financial support to a pro-Trump PAC. This endorsement came amid Musk's decision to relocate the headquarters of SpaceX and X from California to Texas, citing a new California law on transgender rights as the 'final straw.' Newsom mocked Musk's apparent deference to Trump, referencing a 2022 Truth Social post where Trump ridiculed Musk. Musk retaliated by declaring Newsom's career 'over' due to his policies. This ongoing conflict highlights Musk's shifting political alliances and contentious interactions with prominent political figures.
