President Donald Trump seems unfazed by the reported drug use of one of his key advisors, Elon Musk. According to a recent report by the New York Times, Musk was allegedly consuming a variety of drugs, including ketamine, ecstasy, psychedelic mushrooms, Ambien, and Adderall while on the campaign trail with Trump. Despite this revelation, Trump expressed admiration for Musk’s work, stating that he did a “fantastic job” and that he was not troubled by the reported drug use.
Musk’s drug consumption reportedly increased while he was campaigning with Trump, and he was known to travel with a box containing around 20 different pills. When questioned about these allegations, Musk chose to attack the credibility of the New York Times instead of directly addressing the issue at hand.
Although Musk has admitted to using ketamine in the past and was famously seen smoking marijuana on a podcast, Trump continues to support him. Even after Musk’s departure from his role at the Department of Government Efficiency, he hopes to maintain his friendship and advisory relationship with Trump.
Despite the controversies surrounding Musk’s drug use, Trump remains steadfast in his support of the tech billionaire. The dynamic between the two figures continues to intrigue and raise questions about the intersection of politics and personal behavior.
