Trump Completely Humiliates Elon Musk in Front of House Republicans
newrepublic.com
Elon Musk joined Trump on Capitol Hill for a meeting with Republicans—and the president-elect used the opportunity to ridicule the richest man in the world.

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 would be hilarious to watch, especially if they both sick their fanbase at each other.

      I would sooooo love that. I would think all the fanbois of the broligarchy would not know quite what to do. They worship donvict and all of his thugs; if Elon and donvict turn on each other and get really nasty, it will be like Mommy and Daddy getting divorced! Who will they choose to live with?
