Look...

...I know it's all just petty nonsense and it's designed to take the focus off of other more important things but... Come on. This is amusing as hell.

We all knew it would end like this. People were pushing for it to end sooner by calling Elon the president or co-president. By posting things about Trump taking orders from Elon. By even focusing on Elon instead of Trump. Two giant air sucking egos in one room cannot survive.

Also, as much money as Elon has, Trump's still the president. He can cancel contracts, restart investigations, possibly have Elon deported for lying on his citizenship application. I mean, Trump really does have the most power in this dynamic.

And I don't think we are going to see anything positive, not like DOGE is suddenly going to be gone. Vought has already taken the reigns on that and he's worse than Musk. Musk is an opportunist who wants to sell our data. Vought is a true believer who wants to destroy democracy, replace it with a theocracy, and hopefully trigger armageddon. So....

But that doesn't mean it hasn't been hilarious to witness the virtual slap fight. The I KNOW YOU ARE BUT WHAT AM I??

Just because we all knew it was coming doesn't make it any less hilarious to watch.

And even if Elon falls back out of his K hole and realizes that he has to make nice, it won't matter. Trump is petty and holds a grudge. There's always a backstory for his hate. Obama roasting him. Sesame Street making TWO different characters based on him, neither of them particularly lovable. He brings up slights from decades ago in speeches all of the time. And oh how he loves to make people bend the knee and kiss the ring. And then mocks them again to their faces. The man doesn't let things go.

It's not going to be pretty. It's not actually going to make the United States any better.

But man is it amusing.

Schadenfreude, it's what's for dinner.
