Elon Musk Joins Trump Family for Thanksgiving Fun at Mar-a-Lago

You might think of Elon Musk as a tech and auto mogul, but did you know he spent Thanksgiving with the Trumps at Mar-a-Lago? Musk sat right next to the President-elect, Donald Trump, and his family. They all seemed to have a great time, even singing "Y-M-C-A" together! A French jewelry designer, Yaakov Safar, said the atmosphere was amazing, with Trump and Musk chatting with each other and other guests. Musk has been spending a lot of time with Trump and his team during the presidential transition. He's even been present when world leaders called Trump. Musk was there when Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky thanked him for the Starlink internet service. It's not just business talk though; Musk has become almost like family to the Trumps. He was seen in a Trump family photo just after the election.

Musk and Trump probably have a lot in common. They both love big, ambitious projects, like space travel and new technology. But with Musk set to run the new "Department of Government Efficiency, " some people are worried about conflicts of interest. His companies get big government contracts, so how will he balance that with his new government role? Other tech leaders are also hanging out with Trump. Mark Zuckerberg was seen at Mar-a-Lago recently. It's clear that Trump likes to have influential people around him. Maybe he thinks they can help him make big changes. But it's important to think about how their business interests might influence these changes.
