Billionaire Elon Musk on Wednesday lashed out at a key aide to President Donald Trump who was rumored to have played a role in contributing to the feud that broke out between the CEO and the president.

Musk responded to a report by the New York Post that said Sergio Gor, who serves as the director of presidential personnel at the White House, has not yet submitted the paperwork required for him to obtain a permanent security clearance.

"He's a snake," Musk wrote in a post on X responding to the story.

The public feud between Musk and Trump began after Gor allegedly persuaded the president to rescind the nomination of Jared Isaacman to lead NASA prior to his confirmation by the Senate over his past donations to Democrats. Isaacman is a personal friend of SpaceX CEO Musk.

I don't know, however, now we have that information and reason for FReepers to run down the answer to that question and many others.

He looks like a wiener, but seems pretty Trump loyal.

[griffin]

He got up in a squirrel outfit to give Muhamad Obama a hard time? Seems good.

Seems turmoil is the Trump way...

[PGR88]

I’ve worked in large corporations at HQ, where there’s a big bureaucracy, a lot of different centers of power and money, a lot of high achievers, climbers and egos, and a lot of politics

I would imagine someplace like the White House is 100X more intense.

and Elon is a spectrum spaz prone to outbursts and meltdowns.

I'm not familiar with that term, however, Musk is prone to outbursts and meltdowns.

[Navy Patriot]

I believe turmoil is the ONE government situation President Trump DOES NOT have a Patent on.

[Navy Patriot]

I assume you refer to Gor, and I agree.

Whats important is to get the Info, to direct the questions, to understand the differences, and resolve them, if possible.

[Navy Patriot]

I can Agree with that!

[griffin]

Yes, I was referring to Gor.

Agree.

[griffin]

Turmoil was Jesus’s way too.

Happens to all revolutionaries.

It be good.

If you’re looking to get along with everybody...well, you’re useless cuz you have no guiding principles, cuz everyone else’s principles are what you go after...and, like I said before, you’re useless.

[usafa92]

Yes, but Elon upped the ante and basically has insinuated the Gor is a Russian mole named Sergey Goryachev. Elon was linking to a few posts on X about this.

[Vaduz]

Agree D.C. infested with them add more acid to the mix and you get lobbyists by the thousands.

They know who are the weak links for obtaining their goal.

bttt

[HonkyTonkMan]

Isaacman gets rich on payment software, pays Musk for SpaceX flights, calls himself an astronaut and thinks he can run NASA.

According to this article, he paid millions to play astronaut and has donated to Democrats.
