O’Donnell also suggested that Musk’s brand new role in the government, co-leading a brand new agency, the Department of Government Efficiency, or “DOGE”, is nothing but a joke in itself. After all, Musk’s responsibilities are deemed as being “fake”, with little more power than that of a lobbyist on K Street.
Musk will most likely be the benefactor of his extended stay with the president-elect, whose opinion is quite famously swayed by anyone who has interacted with him recently. However, according to tech journalist Kara Swisher, the relationship between them is bound to end sooner than later.
“They’re both narcissists, and in all honesty, there can be only one narcissist as head of the country, and that’s Donald Trump who has recently won the election.” She also added that everyone knows Trump owes things to Elon.
However, at some point, if he starts taking too much attention, he will rapidly be out of the picture, as she explained. It doesn’t matter how critical Musk was in Trump’s campaign. It doesn’t matter if he was right in the middle of the White House.
Tomorrow he might not be anymore. “Trump is known to go through people like tissues” she concluded. “Even if it’s Musk, they are going to clash at some point.”
