He\u2019s more concerned with his own ego and wealth than the greater good.\u201d Baldwin\u2019s comment took everyone in the studio by surprise, with fellow presenters and audience members reacting with shock.<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" src=\"https:\/\/luxs.carmagazine.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image_676a5b4e21d32.webp\" class=\"lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxs.carmagazine.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image_676a5b4e21d32.webp\" width=\"780\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>The actor\u2019s comments added fuel to the fire of criticism against Musk, who has been criticized for his management style, controversial tweets and recent business decisions.
