Yes, that’s fair.

Again, it’s really early in the election cycle. However, it does show that Independents are divided on Musk and may very well be this way as he continues to disrupt government in an adverse way.

I’d be more focused on how the independents evolve. They are probably still trying to wait and see how things unfold in 2025.

Well, consider this: Less than one month into his presidency, Trump’s approval rating is 10% below where President Biden’s was at this point.

Granted, it’s hard to say for sure how much of that growing unpopularity is due to the actions of Elon Musk, or vice versa, but one thing seems certain: at least for now, Musk and Trump are joined at the hip.

Yeah, Musk and Trump are definitely tied together.

However, given independents are divided at this point as outlined in the poll, Musk isn’t doing anything right now that is going to move the needle for them. Remains to be seen.
