It will be the Trump things, good or bad, he proposes or puts in place that will determine the type of welcome he receives if he visits the DR. What he can do now is appoint an ambassador.

I am awaiting word on that.

My being appointed is almost as likely as his visiting.

He named his pick for ambassador to DR back in December.

For the Dominican Republic, the president-elect announced Leah Francis Campos to serve as the next ambassador.

"Leah served our Country as a CIA Case Officer before becoming Senior Advisor for the Western Hemisphere on the House Foreign Affairs Committee," said Trump.

Where does Musk rank in that list? Will he be coming to the DR?
Musk is actually one of the billionaires in charge of the US government. I would say he is right up there.

This current government has shown that the real people in charge of the Plutocracy in the USA is those with billions. The billionaire's minions are the Lobbyists for the mil/areo , big pharma, and big tech are the ones really running the show and writing the bills that become law. They fund the campaigns of those in Congress of have been for decades. Quid Pro Quo.

Now that is all out in the open and is coherent with Trump's commitment to transparency.

Will Musk visit the DR? Maybe on a vacation, but I doubt it.

Musk can go anywhere he wants, he is the wealthiest man in the world. He can buy Cabarete with his lunch money.
They have not expressed much interest in the DR. It's Canada, Greenland, Panama and now also Gaza.
