On this week’s episode of Voternomics, hosts Allegra Stratton and Stephanie Flanders discuss decisions by US executives not to endorse either Vice President Kamala Harris or Donald Trump in the presidential election. From Warren Buffet to the Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post, Charles Elson, founding director of the Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance,  argues such displays of impartiality are a “return to the tradition.” Bloomberg Businessweek senior writer and Elon, Inc. podcast contributor Max Chafkin also joins this episode to explain Elon Musk’s devotion to Trump and the potential consequences for his company and the country. What is Tesla set to win or lose in this election? And will Musk be given a government role by Trump should he win?  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
