Washington DC [US], November 6 (ANI): Tesla CEO and billionaire Elon Musk exuded confidence of Donald Trump’s return to the White House, as the early projections show the former president ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris.
The counting of votes is underway for the US Presidential elections after polling closed almost in all states on Tuesday (local time).

He has donated USD 75 million to Trump’s Political Action Committee aiming to pave his return to the White House. He even hosted an X-Space with the former President and appeared at some of his campaign rallies.
