Musk also spent Election Day at Trump's residence in Mar-a-Lago. According to information in the media, since that time he almost did not leave the Trump estate.

In a speech in early November, Trump explained that Musk simply "likes it" there.

“I can't kick him out of here. He just loves this place," Trump said.

The next US president also tapped Musk and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the Department of Government Effectiveness (DOGE). The main task of the new structure will be to "dismantle" the federal bureaucracy and reduce the number of officials in the government.

Trump himself wished Americans a Happy Thanksgiving just after midnight Thursday with a post on the Truth Social social network.

“Happy Thanksgiving to all, especially the radical leftist lunatics who worked so hard to destroy our country and failed miserably. They will always fail because their ideas and policies are so hopelessly bad that the great men of our country have just handed a landslide victory to those who want to make America great again! ", Trump emphasized.
