Summary
“He wants to be seen as having say in everything (even if he doesn’t),” one person in Trump’s orbit said.
Elon Musk’s growing influence in Donald Trump’s orbit is reportedly irritating members of the former president’s inner circle.
Since his efforts helped secure Trump’s reelection, Musk has been highly visible at Mar-a-Lago, taking credit for Trump’s victory and acting as if he’s a “co-president.”
Musk has joined key diplomatic calls and even attempted to broker peace with Iran.
Despite his appointment to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, some close to Trump feel Musk’s overreach and need for attention may jeopardize his position, as Trump dislikes sharing the spotlight.
Please fire him. Preferably into the sun, but I’ll accept simply out of any position in government.
Much easier and cheaper to fire him out rather than in. Orbital mechanics and all.
Trump doesn’t let people gain much power around him and neither Musk or Trump play well with others. Elon will be gone soon enough. I’ve got the popcorn for when the cat-fight starts. Should be fun.
