Summary
In a Fox News interview, Elon Musk and Sean Hannity repeatedly talked over Donald Trump, sidelining him in a discussion about government efficiency.
Musk dominated the conversation, warning of national bankruptcy and presenting himself as a savior.
Hannity largely directed questions to Musk, while Trump struggled to interject.
The awkward exchange fueled speculation about Musk’s influence, with some questioning who is really in charge.
Man, I never knew that the price to make Trump your bitch was so low.
Like the public could just GoFundMe $400M and have him as a public servant once again.
Except he has this thing where he acts like the unseen person in high school who was just noticed by the popular crowd when people he perceived as important or popular notice him: Elon, Saudi Arabian princes, Putin, etc
We The People hold no such sway.
I don’t think it’s just the money. He is deeply insecure, and I think that, in many ways, he actually craves the approval of what he sees as “the popular kids” (in his mind, the wealthiest man in the world is the #1 popular kid. Like the homecoming king in an 80s movie)
No, unless an individual controls the money, it would just be added to Trump’s pile and nobody else would get anything out of it.
