According to Fox News, former US President Donald Trump mentioned Musk in a speech at a campaign rally in Michigan on the 20th local time, saying, "You know Elon, I like Elon Musk. Elon supported me the other day and he is great. I saw this rocket land while watching TV three years ago. If you leave it to the government, you will not see this sight for another 50-100 years." In addition, while Musk is suspected of denying reports that he will donate $45 million a month to support the Trump campaign, Trump said again in his speech, "Musk gives me $45 million a month and doesn't say a word. If someone else gives you $2, you have to treat them to drinks and meals."
