He was pushed to the brink when his NASA nominee, billionaire payments entrepreneur Jared Isaacman, was axed by Trump in a late-night Truth Social post.
Until then, Musk’s criticisms of the president had been confined to relatively measured arguments against the deficit.
…Trump was handed the dossier on Isaacman just moments before a televised send-off for Musk in the Oval Office.
The president tempered his rage through the farewell but when the press were gone, he confronted the SpaceX boss.
He began reading some of the donations aloud, shaking his head.
‘This is not good,’ Trump told him.
The world’s richest man begged the world’s most powerful to reconsider.
But the president, by now growing suspicious of the deficit hawk DOGE chief, wouldn’t hear it.
‘I don’t care, this guy is gone,’ Trump said.
…Trump pointedly addressed the decision during an Oval Office meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz last Thursday as Musk’s attacks on X spiraled out of control.
‘I didn’t think it was appropriate,’ Trump told reporters. ‘He happened to be a Democrat, like, totally Democrat. And I say, you know, look, we won. We get certain privileges. And one of the privileges is we don’t have to appoint a Democrat. NASA is very important.’
Sounds legit and story is a good read. ABN
