A few minutes into Donald Trump’s first Cabinet meeting on Wednesday, ubiquitous White House guest Elon Musk, stood up and said a few words. Dressed for a Trump rally, or perhaps a trip to a fast food establishment, the shadow president stood in his relaxed “dark MAGA” attire: black slacks, black t-shirt, black jacket and black MAGA baseball cap, and spoke briefly about DOGE and government cuts to the more formally attired Cabinet members. Then he asked if the Cabinet was happy with him.
Trump, who never likes to be upstaged, interrupted his lady in waiting, Musk, to ask the same question, “Is anyone unhappy with Elon?” There wasn’t even a slight pause before Trump added, “If you are, we’ll throw them out of here.”
