In a recent interview, Elon Musk reflected on his time spent in politics, admitting that he possibly allocated too much of it at the expense of his companies. Speaking with space reporter Eric Berger at SpaceX's Starbase, Musk expressed his intent to reduce political engagement, suggesting a shift back to focusing on SpaceX and Tesla. This decision comes against a backdrop of investor criticism and substantial stock fluctuations for Tesla, highlighting the importance of his attention on business matters juxtaposed with political endeavors.
Musk mentioned he had "probably spent a bit too much time on politics" and clarified that he would be reducing his political involvement significantly in recent weeks.
He emphasized that while the media tends to over-represent his political engagements, his focus remained on his companies and that he'd reallocated time to them.
Earlier this year, Musk faced criticism from Tesla investors regarding his commitment, particularly as Tesla's stock experienced substantial declines amid his political distractions.
Musk reassured investors that he'd be stepping back from political roles, which he acknowledged had absorbed too much of his time, impacting his primary business focus.
