Musk laughs off election drubbing with space lasers joke

Elon Musk joked on X early Wednesday after Republican candidates he backed lost big in the midterms, writing, 'Guess my election-interfering space lasers didn't work this time.' Musk spent an estimated $445 million this cycle, the largest individual donation in modern history. He also quipped about data centers in space after Democrat Gina Hinojosa won Texas's governor race.
