How will President Trump handle potential conflicts of interest with Elon Musk's companies that do business with the US government?

President Trump clearly stated that if there was a conflict of interest involving Musk's businesses, he would recuse himself from the decision-making process. The concern stems from Musk's multiple companies—including X, Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink, and Neuralink—that conduct business with government agencies and could potentially benefit from favorable policies enacted by Trump's administration. This approach demonstrates Trump's acknowledgment of the ethical considerations surrounding Musk's dual roles as both a business leader with significant government contracts and an advisor to the administration.
