In terms of Musk and Don meeting before being sworn in, you forget why Mike Flynn was fired. He was back channeling with Russia before Trump got in. Then Kushner tried to do it.

Elon Musk helped Ukraine out with providing internet, I see no problem here. News anchor said hes quickly putting together his team. kind of like the democrats skipping the primary and selecting kamala themselves. I see that as a problem. where is the concern there?

Elon Musk is going to do wonderful things he’s offered to do Starlink for Ukraine. That’s a wonderful contribution he can contribute so much good to this country with Trump. It’s the dream team.
