Going out a limb here, I do not think this is why Elon Musk might be taking a lesser role in government work, I believe Elon Musk is continuing to lie to people

I heard somewhere that he's a "special government employee." Like, the way that he was hired puts a 130-day cap on how long he's allowed to work there, and he is "planning to step back" roughly 130 days in.
Yeah but they can reup a “special government employee” status pretty much indefinitely. If he had won in Wisconsin and had good poll numbers, they’d probably keep him around. But he’s pretty much hated across the board
Elon Musk has found out, when people find out what he really is, they don't like him. So he will go black for a while then start lying about who he is and what he's about again. Elon is a phony, lying, pos, who doesn't understand reality for people other than him
The weird thing is he's lying in such a way that encourages people to be mean to him — possible he hasn't thought that far ahead, or the marginal impact of people being mean to him is small at this point
I don’t pretend to know what goes on inside musk’s head, but
-Tesla’s bleeding money
-He’s increasingly irrelevant in a government that is actively throwing away business relationships
-DOGE is an obvious failure that won’t save the government much money at all, because nobody cares doing that
Elon Musk has publicly spatted with the Trump administration over tariffs, and really, what does this relationship do for Trump at this point. Musk already built the Nazi platform. Was this relationship ever bound to last a lifetime, I guess my question here
Hell no. Musk is exactly the kind of person who would irritate Trump. His personality is abrasive and most importantly, he’s ,somehow) a lot richer than Trump. This ride was always headed straight for a brick wall. I was expecting a more spectacular crash though, ngl.
i fully believe trump agreed to the doge thing because the cabinet saw some value in the gamer bros that idolize him and thought making him a little department with no actual power would appease him and that crowd. and then they started destroying everything and making it harder to be fascists
I have a genuinely hard time imagining exactly what Musk wants. I don't feel like he's surprised by Tesla suffering from this, but he has so much money, what does it matter if Tesla tanks? My best guess is that he wants attention, and he's squeezed enough out of DOGE so it's on to the next stunt.
The answer is that the RNC war chest was completely empty at the end of the election and Musk swooped in at the last second (he gave almost 25% of Trump’s outside campaign funds)
The real turnaround came when he bungled Wisconsin. Vibe among strategists is Elon’s money is now worse than no money
I was betting on their relationship not surviving the winter, I guess I was optimistic.
When has Trump ever maintained a long-lasting trustworthy relationship ? He uses people like Kleenex, this is no exception.
He got into a fight with Bessent yesterday, with Bessent yelling FUCK YOU to Elon. Apparently Meloni was at earshot. Probably not having fun learning how the state actually works.
Hard to say. I feel like he's definitely lying and wants to do a more shadow role.... but he's also Elon Musk. If he knew how and when to shut up he'd be terrifyingly more successful.
Woooooooooah look at Mr. Conspiracy over here. Cite 10 longitudinal 40 year studies proving Musk is lying here or else it’s just proof that leftists are disconnected from reality

This headline makes him sound like, to use a right-wing insult, a complete snowflake. Can’t handle the heat? Stay out of the kitchen, and maybe move out of the White House and run one of your 17 companies or parent one of your 35 children.
Even if it's a lie it's still funny in a pathetic way that he publicizes. Little pit stain afraid of us broke depressed millenials and zoomers that hate his guts.
It really doesn’t matter either. As the spouse of someone who has been DOGEd, they plan to keep allowing the teen boys to gut things they don’t understand even if Elon is no longer the figure head

And probably not even then.

That seems to have been the final straw
