Trump tried hard to be perceived as an outsider candidate when trying to return to office. Logically, that makes no sense, but I'm sure their research showed it was important.
- kelipso 1y agoTrump 2 admin did bring in a lot of outsiders including our beloved Musk and a bunch of other people from Silicon Valley too, and they got rid of a lot of people from the Trump 1 admin. So logically the outsider candidate thing did make sense.
- nitwit005 1y agoHe didn't name Musk during the campaign. He presumably thought that'd hurt his chances.
- kelipso 1y agoMusk campaigned for him pretty actively. I remember a "chance to win a million dollars if you vote" thing Musk ran in Pennsylvania that was controversial. I don't remember if Musk was part of the official campaign team though, probably not. There were a lot of outsiders, many from the tech scene, in his campaign though. Very obvious show of support from tech billionaires pre-election.
