Trump head cheerleader Elon Musk will be bunking with the former president at Mar-a-Lago in West Palm Beach tonight as the 2024 general election results pour in, according to the New York Times.
Sources tell the newspaper that the X (that's Twitter to you and us) owner will be among a small group sharing election-night festivities with the veteran presidential hopeful.
If the pair will spend the entire night together, one X user has an important question:
"Who's gonna be the small spoon?"
Another X user appropriated a more — gasp! — NSFW observation in response to the slumber-party news.Who's gonna be the small spoon?

Another wondered what olfactory results might come of the mogul-on-mogul commingling of, er, musks, suggesting that "[t]he smell in the room would be unimaginable."https://t.co/t83xZx2tU3 pic.twitter.com/LzkFkBoaWz

We'll wait.
OK?
"Well we know where that leads," a user wrote above an AI image of Trump cradling a glowingly pregnant Elon.
It's not a huge surprise that Musk and Trump would choose to watch the returns roll in; the pair has been crushing on one another with a passion in the months leading up to Election Day.Well we know where that leads pic.twitter.com/OwCf3T4QZV

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO threw his support behind the Republican nominee in July and poured more than $118 million into a pro-Trump America PAC of his own creation. Along with the financial backing, Musk has used his social-media platform to spread pro-Trump propaganda and election misinformation. Trump basked in the adulation, lauding Musk as a genius during his town hall at Univision's studios in Doral in October.
Musk smooched back, announcing during an October 19 rally in Pennsylvania that the PAC would give away $1 million a day to voters in swing states who sign a petition in support of the First and Second amendments.LAST PUSH pic.twitter.com/iJ3Hw3Vz4J

Following a lawsuit filed by Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, who argued the stunt violates federal election laws, a Pennsylvania judge allowed the giveaway to proceed.
Days before Halloween, the 53-year-old tech billionaire took the stage at Trump's Madison Square Garden rally and declared himself "dark, gothic MAGA" while sporting a hat whose MAGA logo was spelled out in font some observers found to be reminiscent of a typeface that was popular during the Third Reich in Nazi Germany.
It remains to be seen whether Musk will supply the popcorn for tonight's slumber party.
