Summary
Trump allies are urging the White House to curb Elon Musk’s media presence after his controversial remarks on Social Security.
Musk called it “the biggest Ponzi scheme” and suggested eliminating entitlement spending, conflicting with Trump’s vow to preserve benefits.
Musk’s cost-cutting measures have led to Social Security office closures and reduced phone services, sparking backlash from both parties.
Critics warn Musk’s comments could jeopardize Trump’s 2026 campaign, while Democrats capitalize on the issue. The White House continues to insist Musk’s views do not reflect Trump’s policy.
In other words, “we need him to stop saying the quiet part out loud!”
Yea, that’s Trump’s job
They’re not upset he’s doing it. They’re upset he’s talking about doing it.
The biggest threat the republicans have… is putting what they stand for out front and center. That’s why their typical strategy is to focus on nothingburgers that have almost no impact like, dealing with the trans athletes. or wholey fictional ideas like schools putting in litterboxes for furries.

This “man” did nothing besides get lucky with being born wealthy. People invest in his stupid shit, inflating the value of his companies, and these companies don’t actually make a profit. New investors are required to fund him constantly, or the companies would crash and burn. Without government contracts and welfare, he would already be a pauper, given his lifestyle.
The White House continues to insist Musk’s views do not reflect Trump’s policy.
Doesn’t that make Musk a domestic terrorist who needs to have his citizenship revoked and be sent to an El Salvadorian prison? At least, That’s the Administration position when someone who is not a jizzilionaire expresses views that do not reflect Trump’s policies…
