According to Huffpost, host Jonathan Lemire noted that the lighthearted remarks made by US President- elect Donald Trump about SpaceX CEO Elon Musk being the ‘Shadow President’ indicated his insecurity regarding Elon Musk's growing influence. The conversation then pretty swiftly shifted to what could lead to a breakup with panelist Sam Stein suggesting that their relationship is largely based on convenience as Donald Trump hugely appreciates Elon Musk's financial support and media platform.
Additionally, Sam Stein also issued a warning that if Elon Musk begins to overshadow Donald Trump in terms of influence, severe tensions will likely arise for sure, asserted Huffpost.
