The X owner, a long-time Trump supporter, has even attended several rallies for the former president during the campaign.
Musk joined Trump and his allies to watch the election results come in through the night, with Trump even mentioning Musk in his victory speech.
Surrounded by close family and friends, Trump said: "Everybody up here is very special. We have a new star - a star is born, Elon [Musk].”
"He is an amazing guy, we were sitting together tonight. He spent two weeks in Philadelphia and different parts of Pennsylvania campaigning. That's why I love you, Elon."
Later, Musk reiterated his optimism, posting this simply six-word response on X: "the future's going to be fantastic," accompanied by a photoshopped image of himself in the Oval Office.
"Let that sink in," he captioned the post, noting how Americans had given Trump "a crystal clear mandate for change."
With Trump having exceeded pivotal 270 electoral votes, he will be the 47th president.
He declared he had "made history" after being projected to win key battleground states like North Carolina, Georgia, and Pennsylvania.
"Every single day I will be fighting for you, with every single breath in my body. I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that children deserve," Trump said.
"And that you deserve. This will truly be the golden age for America." Despite the Republicans not yet being officially declared the winners, Trump now sits just four electoral votes shy of victory.
Trump's running mate, JD Vance, also addressed supporters from the stage in Florida.
"I think that we just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America," Vance said.
"Under president Trump's leadership, we're never going to stop fighting for you, for your dreams, for the future of your children. And after the greatest political comeback in American history, we're going to lead the greatest economic comeback in American history - under Donald Trump's leadership."
CNN confirms on Wednesday (November 6) that Trump has been projected to become the next president of the United States of America.
Following a campaign trail that consisted of a president's withdrawal, assassination attempts, a new Democratic nominee, and a lot of swipes and jibes - both political and personal - Trump is set to become only the second person in US history to reclaim the office after losing his first bid for re-election.
