Not very. The DoD is aggressively apolitical with regards to domestic politics.

That said I am very concerned with the influence he undoubtedly will have with our space asset acquisition policies.

DoD is the institution that basically bankrolls most of what musk ever did, to me this just feels like a modern howard hughes, a flashy rich public person that does "crazy" things, very usefull thing to have to hide big military projects in plain sight....

The older he gets the more true it'll be. Once he change sthe law to become supreme leader for life it will also get easier, just need to keep him alive longer. In China they harvest organs from young people to keep the CPP top alive as long as possible, so why not in America too? Learn from the winners! /s
