Elon Musk looked to downplay Tuesday's major election defeat in Wisconsin -- leaving many to question Musk's influence and whether he could be a political liability.
Wisconsin voters rejected an all-out blitz by the billionaire to get a conservative on the state’s supreme court.
Elon Musk has had a roller coaster of a day. On Tuesday night, Musk's favored conservative candidate failed to win a Wisconsin Supreme Court election despite the billionaire and his super PAC dropping at least $15.
MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow claimed that a liberal candidate winning Wisconsin Supreme Court election was a referendum on President Trump and his senior adviser Elon Musk.

"Elon Musk should become Donald Trump's special envoy for midterm elections," said one Democratic Party leader.
