Donald Trump, Seeking Cash Infusion, Meets With Elon Musk

It’s not clear whether Mr. Musk will spend any of his billions on the former president’s behalf. If he does, he could erase Mr. Trump’s financial disadvantage in the 2024 race.”

Will Elon bail out Mr. Trump?

20240318: UPDATE

Information from the New York Times: Don Lemon quotes Elon Musk as saying this, “Mr. Musk also said he would not loan Mr. Trump money to pay his legal bills.”

I am not resolving the market at this point, but adding this as additional information. The article is here:

What if it’s not structured as a loan? Say he buys Mar-a-Lago and leases it back to Trump at $1 a year.

Sorry I missed your comment earlier. Clearly you are a clever fox—I had not considered that sort of work around. Let me consider your question and get back to you.

This market seems way too high when Elon has said he's not giving money to either side.

@TimothyJohnson5c16

Elon has done a few things he previously said he wouldn’t, so 🤷🏻‍♀️

@suzumebatchi Haha, fair enough, he can be pretty erratic.

Does he have to loan it by November?

@NathanScott

For this market, yes. Elon must loan Trump the money by November for this to resolve to “yes.”
