Summary
During a meeting with House Republicans, President-elect Donald Trump publicly mocked Elon Musk, saying, “Elon won’t go home. I can’t get rid of him,” as Musk has spent extensive time with Trump recently.
The comments were seen as an assertion of Trump’s dominance, with MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell noting the uncomfortable laughter from the room.
Musk has been tapped to co-lead the new “Department of Government Efficiency” (nicknamed “DOGE”), a role critics describe as superficial.
Observers predict Trump and Musk’s alliance may sour due to their clashing egos.
Oh that isn’t even a flyspeck on the window compared to the shit he does to his ‘allies’ when he needs a fallguy or simply gets tired of them. And something tells me Elon won’t be so accepting of his role as orange man’s personal doormat so this will be interesting to watch in a morbid way if nothing else.
