    And yet Musk decides who gets fired and that’s not changing.

    Typical Trump doubletalk. He’s lying to his own cabinet.

    But he also said he wanted cuts, and that Musk would remain a power center: “If they can cut, it’s better. And if they don’t cut, then Elon will do the cutting.”

    Its not time for celebration. This is just to take heat off Elon. Now the media will be able to spread the blame around or excuse it. “People inside the department know how best to make cuts. Everything is normal”.

      He’s stirring up conflict among his subordinates in order to keep the media hypnotized.

    LOL. I wonder how much of this is the fact that fElon is even more polarizing than Bronzo the Clown himself, and dragging down the polling of this maladministration, or if it’s because Bronzo is jealous of all the attention fElon is getting.
