Donald Trump has invited top billionaire Elon Musk for a big post in his administration after securing victory in the US presidential election. Not only that, in a picture posted on social media X, it was seen that Musk is also standing with his son X-Ash in a family photo of Trump after the victory. But many people are surprised by the absence of Melania Trump in this picture!
Kai Trump, Trump's granddaughter, posted that picture on X. 17-year-old Kai Trump's eldest son is the daughter of Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump. Posting the picture, he captioned it — 'The whole squad'.
In the photo posted by Kai as a member of the Trump family, he refers to all members of the Trump family as the 'whole squad'. But in between, Melania's absence and Elon Musk's presence have started to be discussed on social media.
An X user commented below the post, 'Elon is part of this family now.' Another wrote: 'Look Elon is right in. An amazing family.'
A third, somewhat surprised, wrote, 'Where is the First Lady?'
Most of those who commented below the picture wanted to know the reason behind Elon Musk's presence and Melania's absence.
Elon Musk's growing influence at Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Florida was also highlighted during the election night celebration. He was often seen mingling with the guests there. His four-year-old son X-Ash was also seen with him.
Elon Musk himself retweeted that family photo of Kai Trump. And in Mar-a-Lago with Trump carrying his son on his shoulder, Elon Musk wrote, 'Novus Ordo Seclorum'. The phrase in Latin means 'a new round of ages.'
It should be noted that Donald Trump defeated his opponent Kamala Harris by at least 69 electoral votes in the US presidential election last Tuesday. He later thanked Elon Musk for his support during his victory speech. Trump called Elon a 'special guy' and a 'super genius' at the time. He said, 'We have a new star. A star named Elon is born. He's an amazing guy.'
Trump said Elon Musk spent at least two weeks with him in various parts of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania during the election campaign. “Only Elon can do that,” he said. That's why I love you, Elon.'
It should be noted that the technology billionaire expressed his support for Trump after the assassination attempt last July. Later, besides playing a role in the election campaign, he also donated more than 100 million dollars to the campaign.
According to Reuters, Elon Musk's financial support for Trump may be a ploy to protect his companies from government regulation.
