Melania Trump, the soon-to-be First Lady again, is said to appreciate having Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, around the Trump household. According to sources close to the Trump family at Mar-a-Lago, Musk has been staying at one of the cottages on the property since the November elections.
A Welcome Presence
Melania views Musk’s presence as a “net-positive” because he can keep an eye on her husband, President-elect Donald Trump. A source revealed that Melania is glad to have someone to keep her husband company, and she might even collaborate with Musk on a project if he stays around. The former First Lady is known to make the best of situations she can’t control.
No Issues with Musk
Melania has her own life and isn’t bothered by her husband’s political dealings with others. For now, she has no issues with Musk, who will co-direct the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) along with Vivek Ramaswamy. The department aims to restructure federal agencies and reduce government spending.
A Potential Partnership
A Mar-a-Lago insider predicts that Melania might come up with her own plans to partner with Musk. This could lead to interesting collaborations and projects in the future.
Musk’s Involvement with the Trumps
Elon Musk has been a frequent visitor to Mar-a-Lago, golfing, dining, and sitting in on phone calls with world leaders. He has also been weighing in on prospective candidates for senior administration jobs. Melania is said to be in good spirits and does her own thing, unbothered by Musk’s presence.
Working from Home
The Trump family’s Palm Beach residence continues to be a meeting place and something of a headquarters for Donald Trump’s political activities. Melania is comfortable with the activity, especially when it comes to Musk. She is aware that her husband has a lot of people wanting things from him, but she remains focused on her own life and projects.
What’s Next
As the Trumps prepare for their return to the White House, it will be interesting to see how Melania’s relationship with Elon Musk evolves. Will they collaborate on projects, or will Musk remain a trusted advisor to the President? Only time will tell.
