Trump’s staff insists Elon Musk isn’t pulling the strings

Trump’s staff insists Elon Musk isn’t pulling the strings

After Republicans caved on Wednesday to multibillionaire Elon Musk’s calls for that the Home’s bipartisan spending invoice be scrapped, Donald Trump’s flacks are scrambling to make it seem like their Pricey Chief remains to be in cost.

They usually’re going to need to work even more durable after the GOP-controlled Home didn’t go the invoice Trump supported Thursday evening.

“As soon as President Trump released his official stance on the CR, Republicans on Capitol Hill echoed his point of view,” Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told Business Insider earlier in the day, before Trump’s preferred bill failed. “President Trump is the leader of the Republican Party. Full stop.”

The truth that the world’s richest man wrote “more than 150 separate posts on X” demanding the GOP scuttle the spending invoice earlier than Trump deigned to chime in tells a special story. 

“It’s not Donald Trump asking for this. It’s very clearly President Elon Musk asking for this,” Democratic Rep. Dan Goldman advised MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell Wednesday evening. “The fact that Donald Trump has been completely AWOL during these negotiations to the point where only after Elon Musk publicly tweets about his displeasure about this budget deal, all of a sudden, Donald Trump, chief of staff to Elon Musk, comes trotting in and blows up the deal.”

The unhappy irony is that the bipartisan persevering with decision was full of funding for farmers, infrastructure, and catastrophe aid—all of which might profit Trump-voting Republicans. 

The GOP created this disaster and now, a authorities shutdown is an actual chance—and the chaos continues with questions on whether or not or not Mike Johnson will stay Home speaker. Distinguished Republican lawmakers like Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene have even floated the concept King Musk ought to turn into the subsequent speaker. 

“A nerve has been struck. Trump is intimidated by President Elon. Now he has his spokesperson out doing damage control cause Elon is calling the shots,” Democratic Rep. Maxwell Frost wrote on Bluesky. “Trump was silent on the bill until his boss, President Elon, spoke.”

Ideas and prayers, Donnie.
