Musk's influence on Trump: A national security mess at best, a global power realignment at worst - Rachel Maddow - MSNBC
Rachel Maddow looks at the role Elon Musk is playing in Donald Trump's campaign, as well as the important role he plays in U.S. national security matters, and his unnervingly close relationship with Vladimir Putin and other U.S. adversaries.
If Kamala Harris wins the presidency, Musk's allegiances will be a tricky national security mess to clean up. But if Donald Trump wins back the White House, the entire global power balance could shift as Musk asserts his influence on Trump to partner more closely with Russia, China, and North Korea. - Aired on 11/04/2024.

Jolly fine! 
(Hubby had 2yrs of Russian.)
I thought we'd been invaded! (DU, that is!) 
And I've been to Russia, went to the USSR in the late '80s with my grandmother and the peace group she joined. But my Russian only goes as far as some polite expressions, I can't read or write it at all...
