Summary
“He wants to be seen as having say in everything (even if he doesn’t),” one person in Trump’s orbit said.
Elon Musk’s growing influence in Donald Trump’s orbit is reportedly irritating members of the former president’s inner circle.
Since his efforts helped secure Trump’s reelection, Musk has been highly visible at Mar-a-Lago, taking credit for Trump’s victory and acting as if he’s a “co-president.”
Musk has joined key diplomatic calls and even attempted to broker peace with Iran.
Despite his appointment to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, some close to Trump feel Musk’s overreach and need for attention may jeopardize his position, as Trump dislikes sharing the spotlight.
Historically the Logan act has been interpreted to not include the Presiden-Elect and their incoming administration.
If the things mentioned this is the most “normal”.
Is it possible to be part of an administration if you’ve only been named as part of a department that doesn’t exist?
