Trump team affirms he’s leader of GOP amid ‘President Musk’ barbs
Summary
Trump’s transition team reaffirmed his leadership of the GOP amid criticism that Elon Musk, a close ally, wields outsized influence.
Musk, co-leading Trump’s DOGE, launched a social media campaign against a bipartisan stopgap funding bill, calling it wasteful.
Democrats dubbed Musk the “real leader” of the GOP, blaming his posts for derailing the bill and risking a government shutdown.
House Republicans are now drafting an alternative funding plan to align with Trump’s demands, excluding a debt ceiling increase.
