Elon Musk has built his career on disrupting industries, from Tesla's electric vehicles to SpaceX's rocket launches. But his latest political moves have raised eyebrows – especially from billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban.

In a recent interview, Cuban was open about what he thinks about Musk's alliance with Donald Trump, suggesting that Musk's focus on political influence could come at the expense of Tesla's core audience.

Exchanging Electric Vehicles for Political Influence

Musk, who is reportedly staying in a $2,000-per-night cottage at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, now spends his nights just a stone's throw from Trump's main residence. This proximity is obviously about access, as Musk has been attending meetings, helping vet candidates for key government positions and actively shaping Republican strategies.

Cuban highlighted a noticeable inconsistency: Tesla's clientele primarily consists of eco-conscious consumers who probably do not resonate with Trump's policies or statements. According to Cuban, Musk's choice to strongly embrace Republican politics appears to disregard the very demographic that contributed to Tesla's success.
