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.
He’s fucking your wife, turd. That’s why he won’t go away.
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?
co-lead
The department of government efficiency
This joke writes itself…
Look, they don’t give a damn about actually following their own philosophies so let’s drop the tired gotchas. They don’t give a flying fuck about the gotchas.
We are really letting the right wing dictate the nature of reality with bullshit takes like this.
That you need one single leader to solve it all is a conservative position. That you need many people working together is a leftist position.
When you try to hit them with this gotcha you’re actually affirming their beliefs in singular strongmen and are normalizing it for the left.
Cooperation shouldn’t be vilified. Cooperation isn’t a joke.
Department Of Government Efficiency. DOGE
The name itself is a fucking joke about Elons pet Cryptocoin.
It’s nice to know cracks are beginning to appear in his administration not even 10 days post-election. The more people opposing Trump the better for almost everyone. Even if it’s bastards opposing bastards.
They won’t oppose each other. They may not like each other at some point, but their goals are completely aligned, which is the fascist takeover of america by Corporate interests.
Oh they will. They’re both raging narcissists. Neither Trump or Elon gives two shits about corporate interests or anything else but their own comfort and ego, and they cant share a spotlight for long. I cannot wait for Trump to try to revoke Elons citizenship and have him deported.
Best case scenario for the country would be that these egomaniacs trip over themselves before they can accomplish too much harm.
That’s a bit of an exaggerated headline.
Yeah can we not do this again? We don’t need a news article any time Trump blinks. Like, there’s plenty of bad and crazy shit he’s doing as-is, no need to mountain all the molehills.
This is part of the reason the “90% of stuff you hear about Trump is bullshit” narrative currently being pushed by right-wing social media is working so well.
