Reporters need to start asking trump how he likes working with such a wealthy person as Musk...
Their egos are too big to coexist
They should ask Trump if, while hanging around Musk, Trump has now seen how rich people live.
They should ask Vice President Trump if he enjoys working under "President Musk"
First Lady Trump*
Let him think the public (rightfully) sees him as Elon's bitch.
Nah, demeaning to women, and I'm not even the type to say that for a lot of things.
Let's make Trump Elon's First Lad.
First man Trump, although does it counts for the title if they're not married?

Lol it's so easy to manipulate Trump into turning on people.
It's lucky that Elon is the president and not Trump.
I think it was an YUGE step for Trump to admit he can’t do the job on his own. And, to let Rupert Murdoch and Vladmir make him let Elon have control could not have been easy. So kudos Don, for admitting you’re just not smart enough and needed help.
The greatest South African inserted Immigrant President of all time.
That fuckin dunce is never going to be smart enough to admit fault in anything. Dude could shit his pants and blame someone else in the room the next day, no problem.

Unsurprisingly, this also works on Trump supporters. They get furious when you even go so far as accidentally and unintentionally imply that Musk's opinion will influence Trump's actions.
"We didn't vote for Felon. Wait, ok, not that Felon"
Wait until JD Vance remove Trump using 25th amendment see how that blows their minds.
8 years ago I'd have thought "Elon will step out of the limelight to avoid upsetting Trump so he can use his White House access to make a ton of money." Now, I know he's just as narcissistic and stupid as Donald Trump is.
“So I guess it goes from Putin to Musk to trump to the cleaner’s… right, Kent?”
Hot damn I get this reference and love that movie!
Right? A Real Genius quote in the wild just made my day!
Yeah don't see many quotes from that movie! It's in my top 10 and I own that movie. Great sound track too.
At the risk of sounding naive, what movie is this a reference to?
"It's times like these I ponder the immortal words of Socrates who said... 'I drank what?!'
I have also done a lot of drugs and made this face.
"I'm in fucken space rn, I wonder if anyone can tell I can't feel my lips"
Nothing in this article supports the headline directly. The last paragraph is.
"There’s no telling just yet how much of a rift this has caused between the two men, as Musk seems to be a long-term fixture in Trump’s inner circle. But if this kind of public one-upping continues, who knows how long this bromance will last."
Lmfao. Good!
Trump ought to get congress to pass the spending bill just to show Musk who's boss.
This has been obvious from day 1 of the Trump and Musk show. Trump is an ego maniac and does not like other people taking the lime light.
Trump is predictable in that sense but then highly unpredictable as he turns to his next round of courtiers and sycophants.
so...we can just pit the vipers against each other until they bite each other to death?
Thats the plan.
If it's this easy to manipulate trump, just imagine how easy it is for Russia.
Good good let the hate flow through you.
Daily reminder that it's always a good idea to tweet Trump with messages like "why aren't your ideas as good as <insert scumbag here>?"
Get them in the habit of tearing each other apart and we can keep them occupied for most of the next 4y.
Oh, they are not getting along. Is it time to pacify the populace with some WWE drama!?
Who is the heel Muskrat or Aotus? Maybe they will take turns, won't that be entertaining!
We need people at every Trump event holding up giant signs that say “We ❤️ President Musk!” Line the streets leading to Mar-a-Lago with these signs!
Then rinse and repeat for every other shitheel that’s aligned with the Orange One.
It IS President Musk.
So, if musk does become speaker of the house, he also is 3rd in the line of succession.
He's foreign born. He can't legally be president... unless someone changes the US Constitution.

Looks like we found (again) his weak spot. Take his power away, and he freaks out.

Oh, this is fantastic. A group of individualists will never function cooperatively
I'm optimistic that trump has built a pool of piranhas to jump into on January
Surely the leopard won't eat my face!
These men will only be broken through their ego. I had a feeling this was coming, but I thought it would take longer.
All part of the theater...
The hyaenas will be at each others' throats constantly. Trust will be the one defining feature of the next Trump administration.
