REPORT: Musk Renting Cottage at Mar-a-Lago
It would appear that Elon Musk has decided to keep Donald Trump close, or vice versa.
Reports popped up this week that Elon Musk is renting a cottage at Mar-a-Lago for about $2,000 per night.
This is reportedly so Trump and Musk can meet daily in the days leading up to Trump taking office again.

The cottage being rented by Musk is reportedly very close to the main house where Trump resides.
If you can believe it, it is the same cottage that was once used by former Speaker John Boehner.
Musk has reportedly been having daily meetings with Trump as well as dropping in on other meetings and phone calls that Trump has been holding as he makes the transition into office.
The Musk relationship with MAGA blew up last week when Musk went on a vulgar rant defending the H-1B visa program, but he later tried to walk that back a bit by suggesting the program needed some serious changes.
Trump poured some gasoline on that fire when he backed Musk and Ramaswamy, saying he had always supported the program.
That statement was both true and false.
When Trump was in office prior, he stated that the program was unfair to American workers.
However, when it came to his actual business practices, Trump made significant use of the H-1B and H-2B programs for workers.
In fact, there was a prior report that of the 144 seasonal workers hired by Trump at Mar-a-Lago one year, 143 of them were H-2B season visa workers.
This gives Trump a bit of the swampy look in saying do as I say, not as I do, and it really upset the MAGA world.
It will be really interesting to see how MAGA holds up after Trump takes office with the influence of Musk and Ramaswamy.
One more note, the temperature on Ramaswamy has suddenly gone ice cold, as people are suddenly chilling on him after he spewed a few insults of his own to the American people.
