1:18Now PlayingIn this episode of Elon, Inc., Max Chafkin brings together Elon Musk reporter Dana Hull and social media reporter Kurt Wagner to discuss whether Musk means what he says about politics, subsidizing the GOP or even going back to work. Is he really leaving politics in the rearview mirror? Or were these statements calculated? Could they be a way for him to intimidate lawmakers who are expecting campaign funds while assuring investors he’s on top of his sometimes struggling companies?
The crew also break down the X outage and discuss the platform’s latest gambit: a planned digital payment system called X Money. Will this attempt to bring X closer to being “the everything app” have any chance to rival established payment apps like Venmo and Zelle?
