As Musk has become increasingly involved in politics, Tesla and SpaceX shares are feeling the Democrat's blue wave.

Elon Musk's $474 million election gamble falters as Democrats threaten his Texas empire.

Musk quipped that his “election-interfering space lasers” had failed, while Democratic megadonor Reid Hoffman criticized the world's richest man's massive campaign spending.

From a February podcast where he warned the U.S. is “1000% going to go bankrupt” to an October interview where he said Washington can’t “save our way there,” Musk keeps saying that only AI and robots can pull America out of the hole.

With Democrats poised to take power in Congress, the president vows to “protect” those who have worked for him.

Elon Musk gave Republicans over $445 million. Democrats still won the House, Senate and the Texas seat on which he spent the most.

Musk poured buckets of money into the midterms. After a loss, he joked about space lasers and shrugged.
