Sundar Pichai Congratulates Trump; Elon Musk Joins Call: Report

Google CEO Sundar Pichai reportedly called US President-Elect Donald Trump to congratulate him on his victory, but what caught attention was Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk joining the conversation.

Musk’s Growing Influence

Elon Musk, often seen alongside Trump recently, reportedly listened in on the call, according to The Information. Musk has become a constant presence at Trump’s Florida home and has been actively participating in key discussions. From joining calls with global leaders to advising on personnel choices, Musk’s influence is expanding.

The billionaire entrepreneur has even embraced the playful title of “First Buddy,” frequently posting memes about his dynamic with Trump on X, the platform he acquired in 2022.

Financial Backing for Trump

Musk’s support for Trump extended beyond conversations. Federal records reveal Musk contributed $119 million to a pro-Trump spending group, showcasing a strategic effort to protect his business interests that rely heavily on government policies and subsidies, including Tesla’s EVs and SpaceX’s projects.
