Maggie Haberman Reveals How Trump Advisers Really Feel About Elon Musk
HuffPost
Sources told The New York Times that the president doesn't intend to cut ties with Musk after the billionaire leaves the government.
New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman on Wednesday said President Donald Trump isn’t “eager to shove” Elon Musk out of his circle despite how some of the president’s officials feel about the billionaire.
“I do think there are a number of Trump advisers who are tired of Musk’s presence,” said Haberman in an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins.
“And I think that is going to continue as long as Musk is there.”
Sources told The New York Times that Trump doesn’t intend to cut ties with Musk, whose groups donated millions to a conservative candidate that lost in the Wisconsin state Supreme Court race on Tuesday, after the billionaire says goodbye to his role in the government.
Musk has reportedly alienated Trump’s advisers, who are pleased to make the billionaire a scapegoat for the president following the Wisconsin defeat.
