Republican governor criticized for saying Musk is too rich to be corrupted
New Hampshire’s Chris Sununu told CNN ‘he’s in a way so rich he’s removed from the potential financial influence’
The Republican New Hampshire governor Chris Sununu was caught in a riptide of criticism on Monday for a comment that Elon Musk – the world’s richest man and close ally of US president-elect Donald Trump – was too wealthy to be corrupted or influenced.
Sununu was asked on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday if he thought that Musk had a conflict of interest owning companies, including SpaceX, that have held billions of dollars in government contracts at the same time as leading an unofficial agency to slash public spending in Trump’s forthcoming second presidency.
