Now the maga creeps are gonna have to do the unpopular cuts on their own. They don't have a stooge to hide behind anymore. At least Elon was so egregiously incompetent he literally got nothing done.
Is Trump returning the millions Musk has given him? Do we think Elon Musk will ride into the sunset without a backward glance? What about all our personal, medical, financial information that he's got stashed away? I have questions.
He should step back, and now that there r no more guardrails, maybe he'll go into freefall. Tesla doesn't want him, u can bet that, he's bad for business. Mars time.
Yesterday, definitely didn't help, just X-pedited that Nazi’s departure and is not gonna change our opinion of Edolf Or Plump. Damage is far beyond repair, they've both shit in our nest
All to save the Tesla stonks from tanking completely, as the major stockholders has additionally hinted that Ketamusk should step back from being the CEO of TeSSler.
These rumours were enough to give the stocks a small lift.
The odd part, even though toxic to many, he is also keeping many others aligned with DOGE. If he leaves, most won’t then think DOGE is great, but others may start to look at it in contempt rather than just being blind followers. 🤷♂️
Just prior to the inauguration, I have the relationship 6 months before imploding. It seems like it might come sooner, but fElon has a lot invested and likely won't go away easy.
Trump, though a Con Man and Showman, lacks leadership skills.You can only BS your way so far when you can't actually lead. Appears Folks eventually come to that conclusion after experiencing his form of know it all, my way or the highway, aren't I the greatest, archaic form of leadership.☮️
Elon's the symptom, not the problem. His exit's not gonna solve anything. Kennedy, Bondi, Hegseth, Patel, Noem, Bongino, Vance, etc. are all the creations of Trump's fevered mind. They do his bidding & carry out his policies. It's still gonna be a shit show while he's in office.
There’s a reason most of the billionaires pulling the strings if our politicians stay behind closed doors. of course, Elon is a narcissist and possibly the least self aware person in existence, so he had to try to be different.
Guarantee it'll be announced late Thursday or early Friday. Surely wouldn't want it to look like it's his failure in WI. Or that they're succumbing to public pressure from massive protests (planned for Saturday).
Don't let the door hit ya on the way out, Muskrat!
Now that musk and his Doge hackers have taken over all of the US critical cyber infrastructure, they can monitor and modify everything remotely. They no longer need to be in the buildings. This just means they have done what they went there to do.
And if Musk 'leaves' the government, is he going to take all those specially installed hard drives he put in the government computers with him? All that nummy data? Or maybe he already has all that set aside for later?
Also, why does ANYONE believe them? Of COURSE they’re lying. Of course he’s going to be right there behind the scenes, looting and bribing. They’re only saying this bc of Wisconsin. He’s not really going anywhere.
He won’t leave before he has fully integrated starlink with white house data systems. He has launch codes and everybody’s personal and banking info. So, closing the barn door a little late I think…
It’s a ruse. Elon will stop being so public but he’ll continue destroying our govt behind the scenes. He isn’t going away. He’s doing this to try to get people to stop protesting Tesla and such. Won’t work. We must keep up the pressure. Destroy Tesla & everything Musk holds dear. Make him a pauper.
Musk is stepping back because there is a time limit for folks with his type of role. Once that time limit up they are required to go through the oversight and vetting process to become a federal employee and he will never pass that. It is not that he is out of favor (or his money ran out). FFS!
I doubt he dumped that much money into stealing the election for Trump just to walk away. He’ll probably act like he’s stepping back but we know who will still be giving the orders, and it ain’t Trump.
Too late. He should have never done what he did to America and neither should have Trump. Republicans are ALL responsibile for everything that happens to America now. Suck it up cupcakes!
Elon Musk said himself that “DOGE” will be finished in May and he would return to his businesses. It only took 5 months to completely obliterate our government agencies. Hoping by May we’ll see evidence of all the “fraud” they’ve uncovered. JK, we’ll never see it.
What? Elon created CHAOS. His work here is done. The Heritage Foundation is the head of this snake, trump is just the tail. Project 2025 is ready to move to phase II. Trump and musk are no longer needed.
So happy to see that most commenters don't believe this new fairy tale. Musk is not going to end his influence on Trump, he invested too much. He might be less vocal and visible for a bit, but even that won't last too long. Elon likes the limelight.
Even if this were to be believed a) he’s already done enough damage and gotten a lot of critical and private data b) Trump is oligarch owned and controlled.
While there’s all this chatter about Edolf, I got two words: Peter Thiel.
You are right, many forget about Thiel. He might not be as rich as Musk but definitely more intelligent and therefore more dangerous, playing his little game with the puppets in the background.
Musk doesn't think Trump means it, but Musk is such a liability with his assumed nazi right to extractive over reach.
Trumps approach is to be more sneaky, lie better, and use more smoke+mirrors when robbing money from the poor.
Let's not pretend that stepping out of the spotlight is not the same as ending his work. He bought a presidency and has been on a mission to line his pockets and destroy democracy, per the Tech Oligarch handbook.Trump wants to outsource everything but fake praise. I doubt it's ending now.
I thought MAGA was happy to have Elon. I guess he's not as helpful now, is he? By all means, keep him. He represents all the reasons why voters hate republican policies.
Too little too late. Tremendous damage has already been done to government agencies with no oversight or accountability of Musk. DOGE, and all those in this administration that allowed them to run amuck in the first place.
It’s not Musk. It’s Trump. All the chaos and ugliness is on Trump. Don’t let him run away from the damage by putting it on Musk. @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
They are hoping if he starts working remote and gets out of the spotlight that the people will like Trump again and the protests and town hall demands will end.
Quiet his involvement and there is no reason to protest dealerships anymore.
It’s an attempt to quell the resistance. Nothing more.
He’s not going anywhere. He’s purchased trump and the entire GOP. The only lesson here is he can’t be out in front of the cameras. But he’ll still be bribing them all and cashing in on his access to our government.
So e will be stepping back into the shadows? Still very much dictating policy but behind closed doors? And has he installed back doors into all the computer systems so that he can access them whenever/wherever after stealing our information?

He's the richest man in the world. He could never do anything to wear out his welcome with trump. And I don't think they care about savings. They want to break and privatize. But I'd be happy to be wrong about this.
Because anyone #brokedickLeon funds for a primary challenge will have his taint stink all over them. And what's a primary challenger gonna say? Trump / Musk will fuck up shit more? Being primaried will open the door wide open in the general.
And what about the delinquents in his big ballz brigade? They continue disenfranchising and erasing the most vulnerable? Erase scientific discoveries? End food and drug safety? When does that end, and how do we prevent fElon from stealing all of our private data for his pet AI? Will Rump stop that?
Elon is wearing out his welcome. While Trump owes him his life and freedom …literally, he can’t lose the rest of the GOP just for Musk and Musk’s billions…in subsidies from the USA.
NEWS FLASH! He has to step back to start his 2025 comedy tour! We made the free unofficial poster for it. He perfected his stage performance & worked with new props like cheese head & giant check! Coming to a town near you, or not! Print your own for free! Share the news with friends. Comedy’s back!
Maybe. But it’s a little late. Since voters already have gotten a good whiff of his stench, I can’t imagine they’ll be forgiving any time soon. Some things you just can’t wash off!!
We must not let Elon get all of the blame. The buck stops with Trump. He could have fired Elon for weeks while Elon destroyed the government with a chainsaw. Trump played golf and tariff wars and allowed Elon to carelessly go into every agency.
So what? He’s already caused massive damage to all the democratic (a small d) institutions that keep us safe, healthy, and strong. What a demolition team headed by a felon president! And now with dangerous Vance, we can’t even safely impeach Trump!
Comments
Elon has no business meddling in government affairs that he has no understanding of.
It’s a coup.
Act accordingly
Because when they kick him out, he’s probably not telling … and it seems like only he and his hackers, some with criminal histories, know
That’s not how selling your soul works.

BREAKING NEWS:
Elon Musk ain't going nowhere.
These rumours were enough to give the stocks a small lift.
Popcorn or nachos with cheese?
Soon on Netflix pay-per-view.
Don't let the door hit ya on the way out, Muskrat!
Revoke his citizenship and deport him!
Will Musky get mad and "tell all"?
That would be so sweet.
While there’s all this chatter about Edolf, I got two words: Peter Thiel.

He's not the entire problem, tho.
Quiet his involvement and there is no reason to protest dealerships anymore.

Now that Congress is going to have to cut services, they're not going to have a choice but to either take the fall themselves or blame #brokedickLeon.
Writing Project 2029 should already be underway.
#BuildBackEvenBetter
3 weeks?
Musk isn't going to be interested in the alimony.
This seems like the same timeline
