For years, he\u2019s marketed them as a way to help wean the world of oil and stop the imminent \u201cclimate change meltdown.\u201d But The Washington Post reports that Musk\u2019s abandonment of left-wing, trendy, virtue-signaling political views not only eventually led him to Donald Trump, but maybe out of the Climate Cult, altogether.
