Trump’s alleged frustration with the world’s richest person arrives as Musk publicly feuds with MAGA allies over H1B visas. The honeymoon period between Donald Trump and his “best buddy” Elon Musk may be coming to an end as the president-elect is “annoyed” at the world’s richest person, according to a report.
“100 percent Trump is annoyed,” a source who worked on Trump’s re-election campaign told the outlet. “There’s a Chinese saying: ‘two tigers cannot live on one mountaintop.’”. Another source told the outlet: “There was likely an allure to it in the beginning but it seemed like it could go ugly…Trump is Trump. I think it’s just the way Trump is. Someone that is around that much and having influence would be a bother.”.
“Where are you? When are you coming to the ‘Center of the Universe,’ Mar-a-Lago. Bill Gates asked to come, tonight. We miss you and x! New Year’s Eve is going to be AMAZING!!!” Trump wrote. Trump appeared to take Musk’s side in the civil war, telling the New York Post Saturday that he supports the visa program.
“I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump told the outlet. “I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program.”.
Despite Musk’s growing influence in American politics, Trump still holds the power, the campaign source said. “The media is portraying him as a co-president. Musk is a character actor. There is only one executive producer, one lead in this TV show, and that is Trump. Elon will have his role, his focuses, but he is meant to disrupt the status quo in Washington and Trump is weaponizing him,” the insider told Mediaite.
