Musk’s Out! (Or Is He?)

So, it’s come to this: the relationship between Donald Trump and Elon Musk has reached the point where it’s like watching a pair of drunken sailors trying to dance the tango. Except, instead of a tango, they’re trying to run a country, and instead of getting kicked out of the bar, they’re getting kicked out of the White House.

According to reports, Trump has informed those closest to him that Musk will be stepping back from his political role. Ah, but what does that really mean? Will he be like a ghost, haunting the halls of the White House, whispering advice to Trump in the dead of night? Or will he be like a bad penny, turning up again and again, causing chaos and destruction wherever he goes?

Citing sources familiar with the matter, Politico (because, of course, it’s Politico) has indicated that people from Trump’s administration are fed up with Musk’s antics and his unpredictability. Unpredictability? That’s like saying a tornado is a bit windy. Musk is like a tornado with a Twitter account.

A senior administration official believes Musk will keep an informal role as an adviser and continue to occasionally appear in the White House, because, you know, who needs actual policy when you have a billionaire with a Twitter account?

Musk’s leadership of the Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.) has been a bit of a mixed bag, to say the least. On the one hand, he’s managed to slash spending numbers, but on the other hand, he’s also managed to make a lot of people very angry. And, of course, there’s the small matter of his businesses feeling the consequences of his actions. Ah, but that’s just business as usual, right?

But, you know who’s not feeling the consequences? The cryptocurrency market. Because, of course, when Musk’s name is mentioned, the price of Bitcoin shoots up like a rocket. It’s like the market is saying, “Oh, great, Musk is leaving! That means we can finally get some real policy-making around here!”


But don’t get too excited, folks. More volatility is expected later today when Trump’s new tariffs are announced. Because, you know, what could possibly go wrong with a guy who’s already managed to start a trade war with China?
