Trump officials growing tired of ‘unfunny’ and ‘irritating’ Musk
“He’s just the most irritating person I’ve ever had to deal with, and that is saying something,” one official reportedly said.
Summary
“I have been in the same room with Elon, and he always tries to be funny. And he’s not funny. Like, at all,” a senior Trump administration official told Rolling Stone. “He makes these jokes and little asides and smiles and then looks almost hurt if you don’t lap up his humor. I keep using the word ‘annoying’; a lot of people who have to deal with him do.”
Musk’s insufferable behavior has caused several high-ranking officials to walk out of important meetings and sincerely question if he was high on drugs, the publication reports, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio is said to be barely able to hide his immense dislike of the DOGE chief and State Department officials routinely call him “Crazy Uncle Elon” behind his back.
Other officials have suggested subjecting Musk to a mandatory drug test, which he has said is a “great idea” for federal employees, as a way to push him out of the door. The Tesla CEO has denied taking any illegal drugs, although numerous people claim to have witnessed him use LSD, cocaine, Ecstasy, and mushrooms behind closed doors, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Oh you're tired? You're enabling fascism and you're fucking tired? You're endorsing human trafficking and all you are is tired? You're profiting off of the complete dismantling of our fucking country and the best reaction you can muster is walking out of a meeting beacause you're TIRED???
Go suck a fucking barrel.
BREAKING NEWS...
President Musk issues EO declaring he's funny.
First Buddy Trump agrees.Anyone who doesn’t laugh at Elon’s superior comedic talents and antics will be sent to a humor retraining camp
Not laughing about his jokes will be considered terrorism and be punishable by deportation to a Salvadoran concentration camp.
Elon is going to whisper in Trump's ear to get rid of these officials
He probably thinks "lolrandom" humor is the peak of comedy.
He's so used to being the boss and having everyone always laugh at his shitty jokes that he thinks he's funny.
He's not a politician and has no charisma or any way of getting people to do what he wants outside of ordering them to, which is why he'll never do well in politics where building and maintaining relationships in your coalition is one of your main jobs.
"behavior has caused several high-ranking officials to walk out of important meetings and sincerely question if he was high on drugs"
Bet you dollars to donuts that he is, so, yes.
Emphasis on the plural DRUGS.
People are leaking to get Musk kicked out. Imagine how ill-behaved one must be to get kicked out of that room.
A shy guy who desperately wants to be a nerd's nerd somehow gets tangled with the party of RAM truck buying adult frat bros who see themselves as "alpha". I just can't figure out the culture fit, and articles like this don't surprise me at all. Like, isn't Trump the kind of guy who would endlessly bully someone for saying they play videogames at all?
There are two main types of "conservative" now. The old school big truck lovin', god-fearin', beer guzzling, anti-environmentalist yeehaw types, and the "newer" 4chan-posting, edgelording, neckbearded, gamergatin', crypto-lovin' internet troll types that have arose in the last twenty-five years with the proliferation of the Internet. Elon is trying to fit in with the latter.
^ This. Never forget, Trump's first term was pushed to success by 4 chan. He is and always has been a 4chan president. He is the emolbodiement of everything /b/
"newer" 4chan-posting, edgelording,
You mean asmongold grandpa?
The richest man in the world isn't trying to help you. He's helping himself to whatever he wants. Super bad idea.
They are definitely NOT "tired" of his money though.
Despite fitting right in. Weird.
I’m a bit confused, cause Trump isn’t funny. It must be awful to be in a room with either of them.
Trump is funny to conservatives. The kind who laugh at the attack helicopter joke. Elon isn’t even funny to conservatives, which is kind of impressive.
Trump is best viewed as an insult comic
Probably, it's an unconventional opinion, but I believe one may on their own will take any drug as long as they are responsible about it.
There's the case of already awful person who doesn't understand anything, futher exaggerated by their keta binge, who doesn't even care about how they affect people's lives. All red flags, like it's a red corner in a soviet school. They shouldn't be judged on their drug abuse first, but by how they are careless and stupid by default.
Being intoxicated while making important decisions that affect the future of the country doesn't count as "responsible," IMO.
One can argue what intoxication means there.
But sure, what Kneelon musk does is not unlike drunk driving.
I'm a killjoy: I doubt that this article is accurate, or if it even matters. I think articles like this exist to placate. I wouldn't trust anything that a "senior administration official" tells Rolling Stone.
I guess that's what happens when you're rich enough to spend your life surrounded by sycophantic yes men who'll lap whatever you say up for proximity to money and influence.
Man has insulated himself from ever experiencing the sincere social cues you need to develop and refine your communication skills.
I choose to see the good in Elon; he may have finally made the cheese hat too cringe to wear.
But at what cost?
At what cost?
To lose the Wisconsin Supreme Court election: $21m.
Not to mention the constant k-hole he seems to be in
All world-historical personages happen twice; first as Rasputin, then as Musk.
We can only hope they all end the same way twice.
Rasputin had a huge dick whereas Musk is a huge dick. Math checks out.
Who's the Russian Queen now?
Trump officials deserve everything that is coming to them, and that includes dealing with an attention-seeking narcissistic billionaire who owns their boss.
Im tired of pig fucking fascists regardless if they're funny or not.
I don’t believe anything what this Administration says.
I was sick of this guy at least back in 2022, and I don't work with the guy. Reading about his douchebaggery in his takeover of xitter was more than enough to flip the bozo bit on this guy.
Too late now, even if he gets pushed out all his minions have their crusty fingers in everything
Trump administration photoshop in 3, 2, 1...
This can't be the timeline I'm living in.
If you wake up first, please shake me awake as well.
From what I've read, this is kinda how he ran off the founders of Tesla.
Maybe that's his plan. Government takeover by cringe.
Elon has control of nearly all government systems including the Treasury. How does Trump and company think this will go when they finally come to heads?
Hint: Trump will lose. Badly.
If republicans had senses of humor and hadn’t decided to boycott most entertainment except for things that are blatantly right leaning, they would have realized this a lot sooner.
