Imagine a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. There’s a billboard that says “In Musk We Trust,” and a Tesla Cybertruck parked nearby with a TRUMP 2024 flag. This isn't just any rally; it's former president Donald Trump's return to the stage after an assassination attempt three months ago.

    Trump’s back, and he’s joined by an unexpected ally: Elon Musk. Yes, that Elon Musk—the one who voted for Obama, Clinton, and even Biden. He’s on stage with Trump, wearing a black blazer over a shirt saying “Occupy Mars” and a black MAGA hat. He's not just MAGA; he's "dark MAGA," he says. What does that even mean?

    Musk has changed his tune lately. After the assassination attempt, he posted on X (yes, that X) saying he’d “fully endorse” Trump. He also created a political action committee to support Trump’s campaign. Remember, this is the same Musk who said Trump wouldn't reflect well on the U.S. and hoped he wouldn't clinch the Republican nomination. But now? He’s up there, imploring everyone to register to vote or else this might be the last election. Ever.

    Why the sudden shift? Maybe it's because Musk sees this as a crucial moment. Or maybe it's just politics—strange bedfellows and all that. Either way, Musk’s appearance at this rally is a big deal in his political journey. It’s not just about him; it’s about the crazy world of politics where allies can become enemies, and enemies can become allies again.
