What concerns exist regarding Elon Musk's relationship with the Trump administration and potential conflicts of interest?

President Trump was questioned about potential conflicts of interest involving Elon Musk, who is both the world's richest man and a major federal contractor receiving billions in government funding. The concern stems from Musk's unique position where he could potentially influence or benefit from federal contract decisions, particularly regarding his company SpaceX and NASA partnerships. These questions arise as the administration faces scrutiny over proper oversight of federal payments and contracts. The situation highlights the complex intersection between business interests and government service, raising legitimate governance concerns about accountability and proper management of potential conflicts when powerful business figures have close ties to administration officials.
