This is inherently political, but I thought it was interesting at this point of the timeline of events unfolding, he could be the de facto President despite not being a natural citizen. Trump has shown evidence of deferring to political strongmen like Putin and Kim Jong Un. I just have a gut feeling that he’d defer to Musk, who has a strong personality of his own.
Two gereatric Nepo babies running a train on our US.
Plebs are gonna get so fucked.
Musk is only 53, I don’t think “geriatric” is realistic description of him. Trump yes, but not Musk.
From an Atlantic article yesterday:
Bruno Maçães, a writer and consultant on geopolitics who has served as Portugal’s Europe minister, told me his phone had been ringing constantly since Trump’s election. European business leaders want to know what Trump will do with his second term, and how they can prepare. Maçães was not optimistic. He scoffed at Trump’s decision to create new, lofty-sounding administration posts for Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, and was baffled by the Silicon Valley types who believe the billionaires will transform the federal government, usher in a new era of unprecedented economic growth, and colonize Mars. “Maybe,” Maçães said. “I don’t know. But if you saw this in another country, you would see it as an acute sign of political decay when billionaires and oligarchy are taking over political policy.”
Actually it looks like he’s fucking this opportunity up like he fucks up everything.
Put two people with egos the size of the Moon in a room together, yeah they’re gonna crash into each other lol
If it didn’t involve the complete destruction of my future it’d be comical
You misspelled Putin
Edith Wilson was de facto president after Woodrow Wilson’s stroke in 1919, for the remainder of his term, allegedly.
I think Dick Cheney beat him to it.
That’s from 2014?
According to the caption (Getty Images, Max Whittaker), I guess so!
