Keep pushing him and making him feel insecure. He's cracking.

Good news on that from is that this wasn't accidental

The “President Musk” messaging is by design, at least partially. This week, according to a source with direct knowledge of the matter and another person briefed on it, at senior levels of different Democratic congressional offices, and also within the Democratic National Committee, discussions have been had about having party leaders and elected officials actively portray Musk as effectively Trump’s boss, and to do so during television appearances that the president-elect is likely to see. The idea is that it’s a cost-free opportunity to potentially drive a petty wedge between the notably mercurial and ego-obsessed Trump and his similarly emotive pal Musk, and to sow some chaos in the upper ranks of the Republican Party.

It’d be funnier to do it after inauguration though. We need to see Musk’s new department completely fail before he is memory-holed. Fighting corparo-fascism for four years/forever is a marathon, not a sprint.

The breakup won't happen instantly and this has already stolen some of his air of infallibility going into his term which I'd argue is rather important. He now looks weak so you are more likely to see more people willing to stand up to him on day 1

He's been cracking for years. My hopium is running out.
