President Donald Trump has seen Elon Musk’s 3 a.m. apology — and he appreciates it.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said as much during Wednesday’s briefing, confirming in a brief response to a reporter’s question that the Tesla CEO’s message had been received.

“The president acknowledged the statement that Elon put out this morning,” Leavitt said. “He is appreciative of it.”
