In a surprising turn of events, billionaire Elon Musk recently had breakfast with former President Donald Trump and Nelson Peltz at Peltz’s estate in Palm Beach, Florida. The meeting was first reported by The Wall Street Journal and later confirmed by the New York Times. During the meeting, the men discussed various topics including Joe Biden’s presidency and voter fraud.
Despite their once contentious relationship, Musk and Trump seem to have warmed up to each other over a meal. Among the attendees were also the sons of the billionaires – Diesel Peltz, Barron Trump, and Musk’s toddler X. This meeting is just one example of how the dynamics between Musk and Trump have changed since their public disagreements.
Interestingly, one of the topics discussed was a “data-driven” project to combat voter fraud, which Musk and Peltz have been working on. Despite the fact that voter fraud is rare in the US, it has become a point of interest for Trump since the 2020 election.
Representatives for both the Trump campaign and Musk have not yet commented on the breakfast meeting or any potential role for Musk in the White House if Trump is re-elected in November. However, it seems that their relationship has evolved into a more collaborative and potentially influential alliance.
