Discussion on Elon Musk's Business Influence

Do you have concerns about Elon Musk's business dealings in other countries including American

adversaries and the level of influence that has over his own behavior and his interests?

I have no concerns about Elon Musk. I have been looking at pictures of Joe Biden and

Hunter Biden meeting with Chinese political leaders lately that we were told didn't exist.

So for all the people who are really upset about Elon Musk having a very successful international

business that actually produces things, actually produces vehicles or rockets or whatever they're

doing, the Bidens produce nothing and yet we're also doing business in China.

I don't want you to change the subject because it's not really about whether he's a successful

business person or not. It's about whether his material interests as a business owner

are in conflict with the United States' national security.

My view is his prospects and interests as a business owner and most of the things he's into,

electric cars, rockets, the internet that we're using all over the world,

it's good for the United States to be the warehouse for that. It's good for our national

security to have this kind of technology. I just, the idea that there is somehow a conflict in the

United States having this kind of a businessman and that's somehow bad for us, I totally reject.
