Republicans have the world's richest man to thank — at least in part — for helping them secure the slimmest majority in 95 years.

The article from MSN discusses Elon Musk's significant influence on U.S. politics, particularly through his companies Tesla and SpaceX, which have become critical to national interests in electric vehicles and space exploration. Musk has leveraged this influence to engage with Congress, pushing for policies that benefit his businesses, such as tax incentives for electric vehicles and support for space exploration. His interactions with lawmakers are marked by a mix of charm and directness, often using his public persona and the economic power of his companies to sway policy decisions. This has made him a "majority maker," as his companies' success can significantly impact economic and technological landscapes, thereby affecting legislative priorities. The article highlights how Musk's strategic engagements with politicians, including both Democrats and Republicans, illustrate his adeptness at navigating and influencing the political arena to align with his business interests.
