Elon Reeve Musk is a businessman and United States special Government employee known for his key roles in the automotive company Tesla, Inc. and the space company SpaceX. He is also known for his ownership of the technology company X Corp. and his role in the founding of the Boring Company, xAI, Neuralink, and OpenAI.


Elon Musk is wealthy primarily because of his ownership stakes in Tesla and SpaceX. He's also involved in other companies, including Boring Company, Neuralink, OpenAI, and xAI. 


Musk supported Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012, Hillary Clinton in 2016, Joe Biden in 2020, and Donald Trump in 2024. In 2018, he stated that he was "not a conservative", instead registered independent, and "politically moderate". In 2022, Musk said he would start voting for Republican Party candidates.


Elon Musk has bachelor's degrees in physics and economics from the University of Pennsylvania. He earned these degrees in 1997. 


Donald John Trump is an American politician, media personality, and businessman serving as the 47th president of the United States since January 2025. A member of the Republican Party, he previously served as the 45th president from 2017 to 2021.


Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is an American politician, media personality, and businessman serving as the 47th president of the United States since January 2025. A member of the Republican Party, he previously served as the 45th president from 2017 to 2021.

Born in New York City, Trump graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1968 with a bachelor's degree in economics. He became president of his family's real estate business in 1971 and oriented it to luxury hotels and casinos, gaining a high profile. After bankruptcies in the 1990s, he focused on licensing his name, and, from 2004 to 2015, hosted the reality television show The Apprentice. A political outsider, Trump won the 2016 presidential election against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

In his first term, Trump imposed a travel ban targeting citizens from six Muslim-majority countries, expanded the U.S.–Mexico border wall, and implemented a family separation policy. Domestically, he rolled back many environmental and business regulations, signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, and appointed three Supreme Court justices. In foreign policy, Trump withdrew the U.S. from agreements on climate, trade, and Iran's nuclear program; negotiated the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement; began a trade war with China; and met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un without reaching an agreement on denuclearization. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, he downplayed its severity, contradicted guidance from public health officials, and enacted the CARES Act stimulus package. Trump was impeached in 2019 for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, and in 2021 for incitement of insurrection; the Senate acquitted him in both cases. After his first term, scholars and historians ranked him one of the worst presidents in American history.

Trump is the central figure of Trumpism and the "Make America Great Again" movement. Many of his comments and actions have been characterized as racist or misogynistic, and he has made false and misleading statements and promoted conspiracy theories to a degree unprecedented in American politics. He lost the 2020 presidential election to Joe Biden but refused to concede, falsely claiming electoral fraud and attempting to overturn the results, including through his involvement in the January 6 Capitol attack in 2021. In 2023, Trump was held liable in civil cases for sexual abuse, defamation, and business fraud, and in 2024 he was found guilty of falsifying business records, making him the first U.S. president convicted of a felony. After his victory in the 2024 presidential election against Kamala Harris, he was sentenced to a penalty-free discharge, and two other felony indictments against him were dismissed.

Trump began his second presidency by implementing a mass deportation program, and starting a trade war with Canada and Mexico.
