Oh man, President Musk isn't going to like this. Good thing Trump is too chickenshit to voice this more publicly.

[–] Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 35 points 2 days ago

He can't voice it publicly or he'll get fired!!

Be careful Don. If President Musk sees this, he may become upset with you and cut off your funding.

So.... Literally no new content.

I hate both of these guys, but this article is repeating old news from a month ago and speculating on the fact that trump has never left anyone unscathed after working with him.

What joke? He bought the presidency, and Thiel bought Vance for the vice presidency. It's the Musk/Theil ticket featuring the old guy who signs bills, and the guy who will replace old guy when old guy does.

Should their couple name be Trusk or Mump?

Mump, because it's similar to a disease.

“hates ‘President Musk’ joke”

I mean… isn’t that the whole point? Wouldn’t his “big brain” understand that most obvious of ploys?

OK, then it is "King Musk" and "Jester Donald".

What are you going to do about it, Mr. Vice President? You going to let that foreigner steal your spotlight? Pansy.
