Before Christmas. All these Alpha Bros can't exist in the same eggy fart vacuum.
RFK Jr will follow shortly after.
Only way Trump sticks with them is if he wants to spend more time on golf course than in the limelight.
I’d suggest they’ll tolerate each other longer than we predict.
Musk knows he can make the most of his position.
While Trump knows that Musk can turn people against him through X just as easily as they turned towards him for the election.
Thanksgiving? Or maybe they’ll make it to Christmas then Donald realises he’s dying inside and has to tell Elon in an EastEnder style ‘duff duff’ (Sorry this only works in the UK)
Ha! Bring it on!! They can’t co-exist with anyone unless the are guaranteed their total unquestioning obedience and their soul. Can see Musk ending up on Death Row in an orange onesie…
Musk serves a useful purpose: lightning conductor. As long as he's there, Trump is only the second most mad bad and dangerous person in his administration. But the clash of egos will won out fairly swiftly.
Thinking of making a bingo card to cross people off as he fires them…
Obviously he’ll just keep appointing other appalling people from his bottomless pit…
Once the wheels look like they're beginning to come off the bus... which will be when the penny starts to drop the poor are getting poorer, while the wealthy get considerably richer.
3 to 6 months. Possibly less if Trump gets fed up of all the carve outs I imagine Musk will want for his businesses from tariffs etc... or of course if Musk just says something super weird to Trump.
There will be rumour unwitting weeks. Then a couple of months after, they’ll be irreconcilable.
They’re like discworld wizards, are billionaires like them: they can’t stand the competition
When the twitter exodus becomes a tsunami or he looks across acres and acres of unsold cars and thinks that becoming a fascist enabler was maybe not his best idea?
I’d be surprised if it lasted 6 months. I’m looking forward to it though, it will be spectacular. And every disgraced politician out there will love have the limelight on someone else no doubt.
6 montjs id say but If the xodus to here continues at this rate then Trump will see him as damaged goods, he's probably already thinking up his nickname
When Musk starts to gain more positive media collateral than Trump. Whilst it’s inevitable, I can’t see Trump demonstrating a failure in judgement on this scale until at least 12 months have passed. A theory, I’m sure, not lost on Musk himself.
At best it'll be sidelining Space Karen and Vivek to go off and send in a report and we'll get back to you, and they're ignored. At worst (best fun for us) it'll be an explosive fallout and firing. As for timing: no longer than 3 months. I may be wrong on the timescale, but it WILL happen.
I’ll go within a year from now. And Joe Rogan is playing for Dana but that’s going to be a difficult run for him to balance against his” honesty is the best policy” mantra. Although he has fallen a little into a rabbit hole.
I think Trump probably knows he can not afford to fall out with Musk now because he will turn his social media empire on him. It’s like how Presidents and PMs had to cow to Murdoch in the past. Trump can’t afford such an Ernest like Musk.
I think their relationship is symbiotic and we may be second guessing this relationship “souring” the same way we thought we could wish a Kamala victory. Don’t hold your breath ☹️
The Trump/Musk bromance will last longer than anyone here expects. Trump defies expectations and his relationship with Musk will be no different. Besides, Musk has put everything he has behind Trump - he won't walk away so quickly, and he'll have nowhere to go if he does leave MAGA. Hope I'm wrong
Trump has a high tolerance for bullshit, especially when there’s lots $ and media access. All of his relationships are transactional and he enjoys playing people against each other, which is what he will do with Musk.
Agree. Already you can see Trump is irritated by him. He’s the house guest who overstays his welcome.
And what rich narcissistic wants a 100 x richer narcissist hanging around reminding him he’s junior.
The pressure of one political term. The undeliverable expectations of a fanatical (and divided electorate). And, importantly, a bunch of ego driven green politicians.
Expect some growing feuds before Christmas, followed by some toys out the pram early in the new year.

Pls send lottery picks asap.
It’ll take a short while for Trump to get the joke, but once he does he’ll be livid.

… unless of course there’s a mass exodus of X 😏
2 narcissists simply can’t co-exist together.
I’ll probably rejoin X when it happens because it’ll be GLORIOUS.
Because the finish line was a mirror, and they both wanted to admire who came in first.
Obviously he’ll just keep appointing other appalling people from his bottomless pit…
Either by thought or deed
Musk will likely want Trump kicked to the curb.
They’re like discworld wizards, are billionaires like them: they can’t stand the competition
Too narcissistic for one another
So many ways to record and replay so many conversations.
I’ll give it a couple of months, tops!
It will damage The Mission!
I’m hoping it’s grizzly because both deserve it to be as such.
Halve it.
Then halve it again.
trump will be jealous of how much money Musk is extracting from the tax payers and Musk seeing trump as a feeble old man wont want to share
So the hope is that Musk is extraordinary in a new kind of way.
And what rich narcissistic wants a 100 x richer narcissist hanging around reminding him he’s junior.
Sad as it is
The billionaire that holds office is the one who can crush other billionaires
How anyone can vote for them is just beyond me
I’m trying so hard to understand but I just can’t
It won't be pretty.
Just look to his so called friends, family and lawyers.
He reportedly buried one wife behind a minor tee on a golf club he owns to avoid tax.
History does not speak well for those who fail serve
