In the midst of a lot of news about U.S. action in Venezuela over the weekend, President Donald Trump took time to have a "lovely" dinner with Elon Musk on Saturday at Mar-a-Lago.
Had a lovely dinner last night with @POTUS and @FLOTUS.

Elon is ALL-IN on funding the GOP in the midterms.
This means:
-Combat the Soros machine

The fact that Trump did that in the middle of all that was going on shows how important the relationship is.
The renewed alliance is already shaping up well for the GOP and for the world.
Elon has already thrown down the gauntlet at the radical left, as we reported, and indicated he was going to be supporting Republicans: "America was toast if the radical left wins."
America is toast if the radical left wins.

They will open the floodgates to illegal immigration and fraud.

Axios reported he was supporting Republican candidates in 2026, which is a huge thing.
The tech billionaire recently cut big checks to help Republicans win congressional races next year and indicated he'd give more throughout the 2026 cycle, two sources with knowledge of the situation tell Axios. [....[
Musk's latest donations came after he had dinner last month with Vice President Vance, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and Taylor Budowich, a former White House deputy chief of staff who's still wired into the administration.
Elon had been one of the biggest donors to Republicans in 2024, so that's great news.
On top of that, Musk posted after his dinner with Trump that he'd also committed to providing Starlink for free in Venezuela until Feb. 3. That's a truly generous act. "In support of the people of Venezuela," Elon Musk declared. One has to think that this will help the opposition and the ordinary people of Venezuela. Elon has helped in the past to deploy Starlink to areas in crisis to help with communications.
Meanwhile, President Trump praised Elon on Sunday night, coming back from Florida to the White House.
Trump tonight on @elonmusk: "Elon's great. He's 80% super genius and 20% he makes mistakes, but he's a good guy. He's a well meaning person." pic.twitter.com/QUprw06bie

How do you know they're back? Elon had a laugh at that comment from Trump and a meme about them being "bros" talking on the phone.
