The Republican nominee for the 2024 United States presidential election, Donald Trump, has expressed his appreciation for the unwavering support of prominent technology entrepreneur Elon Musk, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding his contributions.
Trump, on Wednesday, November 6 informed his supporters that Musk’s Starlink satellite service played a crucial role in saving “a lot of lives” during Hurricane Helene, which struck the southeastern United States in October.
“I told Elon they need it badly in North Carolina. Can you get it? He had that there so fast, it was incredible. It saved a lot of lives. They saved a lot of lives,” Trump stated.
He added; “He’s a character, he’s a special guy, he’s a super genius. We have to protect our geniuses; we don’t have that many of them.”
Musk has been a strong supporter of Trump’s campaign, randomly donating one million dollars to voters who register to vote for the Republican Party.
