House Democrat Trolls Trump: Donald Doesn’t Even Rank As VP In ‘President Elon Musk’s’ Administration

It becomes clearer each day that the person calling the shots for the incoming Trump administration isn’t Donald Trump. Instead, it’s Twitter CEO Elon Musk, who appears to be making major policy decisions via social media that are later adopted by Trump and regurgitated to the MAGA faithful who then further amplify those messages online.

If you doubt that, consider that Musk almost single-handedly tanked the bipartisan spending bill to keep the federal government open until March of next year, demanding that Congress give in to Trump’s demands regarding the federal debt ceiling either being raised or eliminated permanently, which would allow Republicans to pass massive tax cuts for the richest Americans and corporations while slashing spending on social welfare programs such as Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security to the bone.

All of this led Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) to suggest that Musk is leading Trump around by the nose.

Appearing on MSNBC, Goldman told host Chris Hayes, “We need to face the reality: Right now, we have President Elon Musk. And Donald Trump, maybe he’s vice president. I guess vice presidents don’t do much, so that makes sense. He might be the chief of staff.”

Musk, Goldman continued, “has no idea how government operates or how government runs” and has “his own very self-interested view of everything.”

Goldman noted that Musk spent over $250 million to get Trump elected.

“Elon Musk has Donald Trump in a vice, and it is very clear that Elon Musk is now calling the shots,” Goldman said.

Elon Musk, who was born in South Africa and is therefore ineligible to be president, is the de facto head of government for the United States. That alone suggests he needs to be banned from this country, shipped back to South Africa, and never allowed on U.S. soil again.

Rand Paul Suggests Making Elon Musk Speaker Of The House

When he donated hundreds of millions of dollars to help Donald Trump win the 2024 presidential election, Elon Musk apparently managed to purchase the entire Republican Party, too

Sen. Rand Paul provided irrefutable evidence of that this morning on the social media platform that Musk happens to own.

“The Speaker of the House need not be a member of Congress,” Paul wrote on Twitter/X. “Nothing would disrupt the swamp more than electing Elon Musk . . . think about it .  . . nothing’s impossible. (not to mention the joy at seeing the collective establishment, aka ‘uniparty,’ lose their ever-lovin’ minds)”

Could Musk qualify for the post of leading the House of Representatives? Perhaps, but would that be a good idea? After all, his only qualification is being the richest man in the world and Trump’s benefactor. Also, the fact that he was born in South Africa might be a sticking point, especially since he’d then be in the presidential line of succession.

Also, the fact that Musk’s space exploration company, SpaceX, has millions of dollars in contracts with the federal government would raise serious conflict of interest questions.

Sen. Paul’s harebrained suggestion was immediately met with online pushback. Here’s a sampling:

Elon Musk GOP Social Safety Net

Spurred By Elon Musk, The GOP Sounds Ready To Slash Social Security

Carrying his two-year-old son on his shoulders as he walked through the halls of Congress on Thursday, Twitter/X CEO Elon Musk made it clear that he’s ready to slash just about every government program to the bone.

Even Social Security? Yep. Even Social Security.

According to Jake Johnson of Common Dreams, Republicans who met with Musk seem willing to help dismantle the social safety net that has existed since Franklin Delano Roosevelt was president.

On Thursday, Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) emerged from a meeting with Musk and Ramaswamy with the message that “nothing is sacrosanct.”

“They’re going to put everything on the table,” said Norman, one of the wealthiest members of Congress.

After airing Norman’s remarks, Fox Business reported that Musk and Ramaswamy told lawmakers that no federal program is safe from cuts, “and that includes Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.”

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) even suggested that he was open to touching the “third rail” of American politics and cutting the social safety net, telling NBC’s Julie Tsirkin “perhaps mandatory programs are areas that they’re looking to make cuts in, like Social Security, for example.”

Musk has also been making his plans clear on his social media platform, amplifying posts from Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT), who has previously said he wants to “get rid of” Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

Ramaswamy is also opposed to Social Security. During an interview on CNBC, he said that there are “hundreds of billions of dollars of savings to extract” from Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. He alleges that all three suffer from massive waste, fraud, and abuse but refuses to provide details to support his accusations.

“People love to have lazy armchair discussions about, oh, are you going to make cuts to entitlements or not, when, in fact, the dirty little secret is that many of those entitlement dollars aren’t even going to people who they were supposed to be going to in the first place,” said Ramaswamy.

For his part, Donald Trump has repeatedly said he will not allow anyone to touch Social Security, but as Ryan Teague Beckwith of MSNBC wrote recently, Trump is known as a liar who cannot be trusted.

“Would Trump try to cut Social Security? It’s hard to say. Over the years, he has staked out every possible position on Social Security—sometimes within hours of each other.”

“So if Republicans—or Musk—decide to propose changes to Social Security benefits,” Beckwith adds, “it’s possible that he might go along with it.”

Possible? It’s almost guaranteed, because that way he and the Republicans can give more tax cuts to rich assholes like Musk and Ramaswamy, who appear to be controlling Trump whether he realizes it or not.

WARNING: This Video Of Elon Musk ‘Rocking Out’ With Trump May Make You Nauseous

In a way, Donald Trump and Elon Musk deserve each other.

How so? Well, they’re both assholes, they’re both power-hungry douchebags, and they’ve both made their money by screwing over other people.

So it should come as no surprise that Musk spent Thanksgiving Day with Trump at the president-elect’s Mar-a-Lago estate.

But a video of the two men sitting at a table together and doing their seated dance moves (if that’s what you can call them), is so patently absurd and hideous that it may induce nausea and cause you to gag.

Here’s the video, which was originally shared on Musk’s Twitter/X platform.

As the Independent noted, Barron Trump looks bored and more than a little embarrassed.

Barron appears to look on awkwardly as his dad turns to him and laughs.

Social media users were quick to comment that Barron looked “uncomfortable” and “embarrassed” during the encounter.

Good to know that Trump, with Musk’s help, will soon be running the country. Or is it the other way around? Is Elon the tail that wags the dog? Either way, it’s hard to believe that the United States is anything but completely screwed.

Marjorie Greene Says She And Elon Musk Will ‘Remove Toilets In Africa’ To Cut Federal Spending

According to Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, she and Twitter CEO Elon Musk will cut trillions of dollars from the federal budget by using the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to investigate National Public Radio and “toilets in Africa.”

What Greene neglected to mention is that DOGE doesn’t actually have any power to cut a damn thing. That can only be done by Congress with the approval of the president.

Greene was asked by Fox host Maria Bartiromo, “Elon Musk will be leading the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, under the Trump administration, aimed at cutting at least $2 trillion said to be government waste of taxpayer money.”

“Tell us what you see as the most government waste.”

Greene, who will lead the House DOGE subcommittee, replied, “It’s all over,” Greene insisted. “Every single government department program, grant programs, contracts, it is everywhere.”

“We’ll be looking at everything from government-funded media programs like NPR that spread nothing but Democrat propaganda,” she added. “We’ll be going into grant programs that fund things like sex apps in Malaysia, toilets in Africa, all kinds of programs that don’t help the American people.”

“We’re going to look in every single aspect and we don’t care about people’s feelings.”

Of course, Greene has no feelings because she’s a heartless heap of human excrement who only cares about herself and her savior, Donald Trump. All she wants to do is wreak chaos and havoc everywhere she goes and sleep with whatever troglodytes happen to cross her path. The more the merrier seems to be Margie’s motto in that regard.

Here’s a suggestion: Cut the salaries of everyone in the House and Senate and ban them from accepting campaign contributions. Also, take away their health insurance, pension, and other benefits, all of which are paid for with taxpayer money.

And while we’re at it, let’s make sure that the IRS takes a good long look at Ms. Greene’s tax returns since she joined Congress. Here’s betting she’s already committed income tax fraud and needs to be behind bars.
