  • Elon Musk and Donald Trump have been inseparable since the election and spent Thanksgiving together.
  • The Tesla CEO joined the Trump family at a star-studded dinner at Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
  • Sylvester Stallone also attended, and Mark Zuckerberg visited Trump's resort on Wednesday.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump have been inseparable since the latter's election victory β€” and the Tesla CEO was one of several celebrity guests for Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago.

Videos circulating on social media showed Musk, who has been regularly spotted at Trump's resort base and is reported to be playing a role in selecting the incoming president's cabinet picks, attending the event alongside his mother, Maye, and the actor Sylvester Stallone.

Musk posted on X that he discussed Stallone's 1993 film "Demolition Man" with the actor, as well as taking part in a rendition of "YMCA," a staple at Trump's campaign rallies.

I was telling @TheSlyStallone that I just watched Demolition Man again and how well it predicted the crazy woke future 30 years ago! https://t.co/3wlYgdJus4

Musk has been tapped by Trump to help run a "Department of Government Efficiency" in his incoming administration after donating at least $119 million toward Trump's election campaign.

Along with his fellow DOGE head, Vivek Ramaswamy, Musk has floated mass layoffs of federal workers and suggested the new administration should "delete" a federal agency set up to help prevent another financial crisis.

The billionaire and his mother dined with Trump's family members, including his wife, Melania, and youngest son, Barron.

Musk isn't the only tech boss to be spending time at Mar-a-Lago this Thanksgiving.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg dined with Trump on Thanksgiving eve, the company told Business Insider in a statement.

The Facebook cofounder doesn't appear to have made any mention of the visit on his own social-media platform Threads.

Zuckerberg has had a rocky relationship with Trump, who threatened to jail Zuckerberg earlier this year if he was reelected.

The Meta chief previously described Trump's reaction to an assassination attempt in July as "badass" and congratulated the former president on his "decisive victory" after the election.
