Summary
Donald Trump dismissed concerns over Elon Musk’s growing influence in Republican politics, telling supporters Musk cannot be president due to being foreign-born.
Musk recently played a key role in derailing a government funding bill, with critics dubbing him “President Musk.”
His $250M support for Trump’s campaign and appointment to co-lead a new efficiency office have raised conflict-of-interest concerns, particularly over Tesla’s ties to China.
Tensions could emerge over Ukraine, where Musk’s Starlink supports the war effort Trump vows to end.
This is working far better than ‘weird’ did.
Spread 'em far and wide folks!
I ran across something from a recent Some More News segment that said “weird” was working but it recently came out that some advisor in the Harris campaign (named Geoff Garin) said to stop doing it and pivot to trying to pick up the “moderate gop” vote (whatever tf that means). I guess he was responding to people criticizing him on blue sky by saying basically “you don’t know shit”.
Or it’s more damage as Trump flails around angrily like the baby who didn’t get it’s num nums.
Edit: Seems like some of you didn’t get your num nums today either.
President musk isn’t going to be happy hearing how his secretary Trump is trying to take power from him
It gets memed on as a coffee typo a lot, which would at least make sense, but weirdly in context it seems like he was trying to spell coverage which is just, how the fuck do you get there. “Despite the constant negative press covfefe”
I don’t think Trump understands the joke. No one is saying Musk is literally president, the point is he is so influential over Trump that he is calling the shots behind the scenes. Whether or not Musk is eligible to be president is irrelevant.
That’s why it’s working. It’s such obvious provocation, but he’s so insecure he can’t resist it anyway
Foreign-born? You mean immigrant!
Actually, he is an illegal immigrant.
The reason this is relevant is because he has spent the better part of a year complaining about “illegal immigrants” who are “invading” the country. But an old video from 2013 resurfaced on Saturday that appears to show the billionaire admitting he was at one point building his small business in the country illegally, describing it as a “gray area.”

Downplay like Project 2025? Both are taking orders and advice from Moscow.
