Trump Admits He Doesn’t Know What Musk Is Doing Or Whether It’s Legal

There are many types of intelligence in the world. We’ve all met people who are math whizes, able to draw with ease, able to sing, play ball, fix things. Every aspect of human life has people who excel in that particular endeavor. Elon Musk has demonstrated an ability to take over businesses and right now the “business” he has gained control over, for the most part, is the United States government.

He intends it remake it in his own image, like he remade Twitter or his other acquisitions. So expect unscheduled disassemblies, his euphemism for things blowing up. Unfortunately, this rocket has 330 million people onboard so this is going to be very messy.

First of all, Donald Trump, who is in fact an elected official, has no idea what the DOGE head is up to. This is catastrophic on its face. It’s a set up for the kind of confrontation that Marco Rubio had earlier with Musk and many more to come.

When Elmo got him elected, they took him in a room and showed him a big stack of those binders, gave him the big pen and told him that almost every day he’d get go in front of the cameras and play president.

Trump has no idea if what Elon is doing is legal or not. Moreover, he couldn’t care less. Now here’s a kerfuffle you’re probably not aware of taking place today but it is important.

Um….we’re not supposed to know who works in the government? When did knowledge of who works in the government become a crime? Answer: it’s not. But here’s why Musk thinks it is.

Listing peoples’ names in a tweet is hardly a “threat” or a “confrontation.” It also doesn’t “impede” work. I get it that Elon thinks it’s a great achievement to have this lawyer at his beck and call. But that fact does not make anything that Elon doesn’t like a “crime” which this lawyer can then prosecute.

But it’s all part of the topsy turvy world we now live in, the Upside Down that Trump II is bringing us. Only two guarantees: spectacle, first and foremost, and Trump will continue to shoot himself in the foot. He’s 0 for 3 now. Panama basically chose not to escalate the issue, (after the theatrics with deportees in military planes in chains) and backed down, so Trump did as well. Both Mexico and Canada are giving Trump some theater at the border, in order to forestall the destructive tariffs.
