House Republicans make their choice: ‘It’s President Trump, not President Musk’
POLITICO ^ | June 6 | POLITICO

Posted on 06/06/2025 8:08:54 PM PDT by RandFan

Amid the messy ongoing divorce between the president and the world’s richest man, this much is already clear: Donald Trump has sole custody of the House GOP.

Republican lawmakers are making clear that, if forced to choose, it’s Trump — not Elon Musk — they’re sticking by as leaders race to contain the fallout for their “one big, beautiful bill.”

Even Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, who helms a House panel inspired by Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency initiative, blasted Musk’s public attacks on Trump as “unwarranted” and criticized his “lashing out on the internet.”

“America voted for Donald Trump on Nov. 4, 2024 — every single vote mattered just as much as the other,” Greene said in a brief interview. “And whether it was $1 that was donated or hundreds of millions of dollars, the way I see it, everybody’s the same.”

Wow the hits on Elon Musk just shows you the president is very powerful figure look at the media and the briefings against him even his minions on FR are out in force calling drug fuelled and in it for his own self-interest (even though he has called for ending EV Mandates!)

This bile is going to be aimed at Sen. Rand Paul and any opponent nevermind the man who bankrolled Trump into the White House .

Prepare for some ugly scenes in the forthcoming OBBB debate because that is how Trump is playing it.

Happy weekend!

And it’s not President Federal Judge Wombat either. It’s President Trump all the way.

By the way I propose the ‘OBBB’ term because ‘BBB’ is more well known as the Better Business Bureau which is like a resource and we dont want to impugn them also I’m sure they’ll hold the copyright so best respect it..

Musk is a great guy, but DJT took the bullet.

I want them to patch things up.

I agree about the judges

But go to politico or any site and they’re attacking Elon Musk

‘All the presidents men ‘ briefing against him. This the guy who spent nearly 300 million supporting Trump and various senate and House races!

If he does this to Musk he’s putting senators on notice I wonder what will happen if they fall in line or go the other way.

Musk is tweeting about establishing another party which will only split the vote as far as conservatives and independents are concerned....

Trump is not a monarch and the US Congress is a primary institution

Like it or not but the likes of Rand Paul are members of a coequal branch and also elected to serve.

GMTA. It’s time for the House to do its job. The rogue, Anti-President Trump feral judgies are out of control. These so-called judges are violating the U.S. Constitution every time they open their weaponized, anti-American mouths.

Is there anybody besides MTG who gets to speak on behalf of the US Congress? Year in and year out, the MSM only reports on the opinions of a small, select group. I guess they must keep their production costs to a minimum in the drama, “DC and MSM in LOVE”!!

The judges are political appointees maybe you should change this system where they’re nominated by politicians like they are

She is most vocal but not sure how popular. She voted for the mess of the OBBB then complains about it

She’s loyal to Donald which is fine but blindly I dont accept it and where her vote makes a difference.

It seems she did not even read the damn thing since she’s complaining afterwards.

We rail against this sort of behavior when Pelosi and her troops did it or Obama for that matter.

I don’t like what is going on with this OBBB and it’s going to get worse I fear

Asperger’s and lack of birthright disqualifies Musk from presidency.

The anti-DOGE RINOs can spend big and pretend it is out of loyalty to Trump.

It’s Trump, right or wrong.

Even though he is destroying his entire effort in one big besutiful bill. Better to go down with pride than shake off your error.

Pride month it is.

The leftwing has become pathetic and they think 80million folks who voted for the president are going to fall into reading their garbage articles they put out they are as stupid as we all thought they were. You see folks, for the leftwing it’s PARTY OVER COUNTRY AND OVER US CITIZENS even. They are lapdogs, useless trained seals who barks on commend for their MASTERS IN the democrat party. slaves to a political party. how sad and pathetic all rolled into one.
