These days, it can be hard to remember that Elon Musk is still the CEO of Tesla. Between his leadership of X, his work at SpaceX, and his increased political advocacy, Musk is stretched thin. At least, that's according to Peter Rawlinson, the former chief vehicle engineer of the Tesla Model S who now leads an electric vehicle competitor, Lucid Motors.
Speaking at Fortune's Brainstorm Tech conference on Tuesday, Rawlinson said that Musk's vocal support of Trump—which reportedly includes a plan to donate $45 million a month to a pro-Trump PAC—is "another salient example of his level of distraction."
