Sneaky move By Musk? his support Could Change trump’s Attitude toward EVs

Elon Musk’s public support of Donald Trump has drawn attention, especially since Trump has not been an advocate for electric vehicles. Doug McIntyre and David Callaway discuss the move, noting the irony given Trump’s stance on EVs and clean energy. Callaway suggests that, should Trump win, he might rebrand clean energy initiatives — especially those contributing to job growth in red states — as “energy security” rather than climate-focused policies. McIntyre points out that Trump, ever the salesman, may choose to retain subsidies that have stimulated jobs in traditionally conservative areas.
