  • Musk and Ramaswamy have found themselves at odds with some of Trump's supporters over their support for H-1B visas, which allow foreign professionals to work in America.

The article from ABC News discusses a notable interaction between Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, where Ramaswamy, a GOP presidential candidate, sought Musk's endorsement. Musk, however, declined to endorse any candidate, including Ramaswamy, despite their previous interactions and shared political views. Ramaswamy had previously praised Musk and even offered him a position in his potential administration. The conversation took place on X (formerly Twitter), where Ramaswamy asked for Musk's support, but Musk responded by saying he would not endorse anyone at that time. This exchange highlights the dynamics of political endorsements in the tech and political spheres, especially as Ramaswamy tries to gain traction in the GOP primaries by aligning himself with influential figures like Musk. Additionally, the article touches on Ramaswamy's campaign strategy, his rising poll numbers, and his efforts to appeal to Trump supporters by echoing some of Trump's policies and rhetoric.
