Prominent Silicon Valley angel investor and crypto advocate Naval Ravikant has weighed in on the evolving intersection of technology, politics, and fiscal policy in the United States.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Ravikant commented on the current political dynamics affecting innovation, stating:

“Elon Musk’s stance is principled, while U.S. President Donald Trump’s position is pragmatic. Current technology requires Republican support, and Republicans need future technological advancements. Abandoning tax cuts and reducing some expenditures could help pass legislation.”
