Summary

Donald Trump and Elon Musk raised controversy after Musk, his mother Maye, and his son were seen using Marine One, a taxpayer-funded aircraft reserved for the president.

Critics on social media called the situation “beyond outrageous,” with one user comparing it to using “Air Force One as an Uber and the White House as an Airbnb.”

Meanwhile, Musk has been making drastic federal funding cuts while Musk recently called Social Security “the biggest Ponzi scheme,” drawing criticism from Senator Bernie Sanders.

    like… i understand the hatred for everyone involved, but air force and marine one is only that designation when the president is onboard. the donut took these modes of transport and took people with him.

    as much as i hate these people, this seems like normal activity and unworthy of a headline.
