He expressed confidence in Donald Trump emerging victorious in the 2024 US Presidential elections.
He also shared an edited photograph of him in the Oval Office of the White House with him carrying a sink into the room along with the tongue-in-cheek caption, "Let that sink in".

Musk had used these words earlier when he bought the microblogging platform Twitter at a staggering cost of USD 44 billion. As the deal had seemed nearly impossible before fruition, Musk entered Twitter's San Francisco office with a kitchen sink to let the deal 'sink in' for people.
Musk has time and again publicly expressed his support towards former president Trump.

He has donated USD 75 million to Trump's Political Action Committee aiming to pave his return to the White House. He even hosted an X-Space with the former President and appeared at some of his campaign rallies.
The Tesla CEO had even expressed his willingness to serve after Trump hinted that he would consider Elon Musk for a cabinet role or advisory post if he wins.
The 2024 US presidential elections have emerged as a fierce contest between current Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. This election has seen a significant voter turnout and engagement, marked by intense events like voting issues, assassination attempts, and legal challenges.
Conversely, a Trump win would make him the first President since Barack Obama to be re-elected after losing an election and the first Republican to achieve this since George W. Bush in 2004.
The US electoral system, developed over centuries, is recognised as one of the most robust in modern democracies. With inputs from ANI
