Dan Goldman: “President Musk Has Trump In A Vise”

December 20, 2024 News, Politics

“Let’s clarify one thing: there does appear to be one president. It’s Elon Musk, who has his own very self-interested view of everything, including the fact that he wanted to remove restrictions on investing– U.S. companies investing in China. I wonder why.

“So, he has his own interests related solely to his own federal contracts, his own business interests. He has no idea how government operates or how government runs. But he spent nearly $300 million to get Donald Trump elected. There are rumors that he is going to use X to buy or merge with Truth Social, which would give Donald Trump a tremendous windfall.

“Elon Musk has Donald Trump in a vise. And it is very clear that Elon Musk is now calling the shots. There’s no way Donald Trump was not aware of what these negotiations were for weeks and weeks and weeks.

“And the fact that he would just drop in the debt ceiling limit at the 11th hour after Mike Johnson and the Republicans reached a bipartisan deal is preposterous. But that’s because of Elon Musk.

“So, we need to face the reality: right now, we have President Elon Musk. And Trump? Maybe he’s vice president, I guess. Vice presidents don’t do much, so that makes sense. He might be the chief of staff. I don’t know what you call him, but he is not calling the shots.” – Dem Rep. Dan Goldman.
