Financiële hefboomwerking en platformcontrole
Musk recently returned to trillion dollar wealth status, with both Tesla and SpaceX shares rallying significantly.

Beperkte formele politieke betrokkenheid

His political activity centers on X posts and selective endorsements rather than direct campaign participation. His primary tracked influence remains concentrated in Space and Electric Vehicles sectors, suggesting his midterm impact flows through indirect cultural and informational channels rather than traditional political machinery.
