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.

      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.

        The real jokes to them are the American people, particularly the average, lower-middle class, the lower class and especially the poor.

        We are just simply watching them clown around actively at everything at the expense and mercy. Pretending that they’re upstanding. Pretending they care. Pretending they’re even there for those who vote for them. But all of this kind of shit is, is just playground bullshitting between an old fart in power and an undeserved rich man.

        Everything is apparently a fucking meme now.

        Keep up the gotchas, just pair them with emphasis on how weak and ineffectual they are. Both are required. One is insufficient.

        Oh hey, someone with a brain! I was beginning to think non-morons on the internet were a thing of the past.

        The most annoying thing is that in most acronyms two letter words are usually ignored. Thusly it would be DGE but musk is a brain dead Saxon African deserving of little more than a shotgun enema, so why should I expect any ammount of intelligence.
