The Trump administration and the Republican Party have finally caught up to the rest of us on Elon Musk and realized that, actually, this guy is the worst. Musk bought his way into the 2024 presidential race, spending more than $290 million on putting Trump back in the White House. For this, he was repaid by being put in charge of DOGE and proceeded to tear apart critical national infrastructure and render thousands of people unemployed.
Musk was in hog’s heaven, becoming a fixture at Mar-A-Lago and once cringingly billing himself as the president’s “First Buddy”. Now, after having to actually spend time in his company, Trump and the Republicans have decided that it’s time to ghost.
