VIDEO: Donald Trump Took Vicious Shot At Elon Musk After He Put In Nearly $300M To Support His Presidential Candidacy

President-elect Donald Trump dismissed any suggestion that Elon Musk is secretly calling the shots behind the scenes amid his second and final Presidential candidacy.

Many online, especially from the Democratic camp, have been portraying the tech billionaire and the world’s richest person as “President Musk” for the past few weeks. Trump decided to push back on the notion that he has “ceded the presidency” to Musk.

When it came to Musk being President in the future, “He’s not gonna be president, that I can tell you,” Trump told a Republican conference in Phoenix, Arizona.

“You know why he can’t be? He wasn’t born in this country,” Donald Trump said as he laughed.

He is not wrong, as the US Constitution requires that a president be a natural-born US citizen.

Trump’s comments come days after Musk intervened alongside the president-elect to scuttle a budget bill negotiated in Congress.

This was just the latest move by the Billionaire who has taken a larger role in the incoming Trump administration.

Trump further added that this entire thing was another “hoax” pushed by his political opponents to make his supporters believe he has “ceded the presidency to Elon Musk.”

Wherever Donald Trump Is, Elon Musk Will Follow

Elon Musk poured in close to $300 million to support Trump and other Republican candidates.

Trump, who topped Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 presidential election, would then announce that the billionaire would be tasked with leading incoming President Donald Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency.

Since then, they have been inseparable.

President-elect Donald Trump attended the Army-Navy game earlier this month, and Elon Musk was right there by his side inside Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland.

The questions surrounding them will likely continue years into his final Presidential candidacy.
