No they can't just force drug companies to lower prices with a an executive order. Executive orders aren't laws, they are orders to the parts of government that the President has power over. The president can order that agencies to look into ways of lowering costs, but Congress has to actually pass laws to legally limit prices.

The Worst Person You Know Made a Great Point; Asmongold Asks Elon Musk To Prove Legitimacy of His ‘Path of Exile 2’ Account
They would be nowhere if they didn't have his money. Otherwise Musk actively hinders his companies with his idiocy. This is well known from SpaceX employees.

The companies' success is from being in fields that the employees are passionate about so they'll grit their teeth and put up with it to be able to work there.
And fighting for free speech, are you kidding? He's fighting for his own speech period. Anything he doesn't like tends to get journalists temp banned or shadowbanned from Twitter for example.
Yeah if that's all that needed replacing. The entire system is ancient, not just the disks, like:
Much more critical than the dated use of floppy disks is the system's loop cable, which transmits data between the central servers and the trains and, according to Roccaforte, "has less bandwidth than an old AOL dial-up modem."
The SFMTA's website adds:
The loop cable is fragile and easily disturbed. This makes subway maintenance more difficult. This also means the system cannot be extended outside the subway, along surface rail, where currently we don’t have automatic train control.
Got it, giving an opinion that someone should not be invited to speak at a specific location is apparently not an expression of free speech, it's suppression of free speech. Just like how if someone comes up to you on the street and starts yelling in your face, it'd be suppression of speech for you to ask them to do that somewhere else.

No he's being a blowhard as usual, saying he's doing things that he's not. He can sign an executive order but that's not going to do anything to get drug companies to give to their profits, because he has no direct legal power over them.
