Editorial: The New York Times

• Mr. Musk becomes a controversial figure through his reckless actions within the government.
• His companies have received billions in government support, specifically $38 billion.
• Musk is dismantling parts of the government that enabled his success, firing thousands of workers.
• Mr. Musk's actions and his defiant behavior towards governmental policies are undermining governmental work and the safety and welfare of the American people.
• Musk has shown a lack of understanding between the difference of business and government.
• The system of government is under attack and political instability and violence is increasing.

Conclusion: In the eyes of Mr. Trump and Musk, it appears that entrepreneurial minds, investors and the general public might shy away from developing grand ideas or making long-term commitments due to the increasing political instability and Musk’s accusations.
