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.
