Musk has been given too much leeway in his business dealings internationally, without sufficient scrutiny of his dealings and communications with enemies of the US. We should not assume that Putin is the only leader he has been having discussions with. His current association(s) with "bad actors" is more than enough reason to reevaluate whether or not to continue doing business with this self-serving individual.
