Elon Musk Helped Democrats Get Their Act Together, But What If He Goes Away?
HuffPost
If Donald Trump gets tired of Musk, he can always send DOGE to a farm upstate.
Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas) got a big response when he said “fire Elon Musk” into a bullhorn at a rally outside the U.S. Department of Labor in February.
It was cold, cloudy and several other Democrats had already spoken, but the crowd of worried federal workers cheered loudly for the idea of firing Musk, the architect of President Donald Trump’s efforts to gut the federal workforce, and did a little call-and-response chant with Casar.
It was a moment of clarity for the second-term Democrat and new chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.
“In that moment, when there were just hundreds of union workers who just couldn’t stop chanting and yelling and stomping their feet after I said just those three words, after that, I knew that this is the direction we all had to go,” Casar told HuffPost.
(The only lawmaker who got a louder response that day was Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.). His applause line? “Fuck Elon Musk.”)
