Musk Denied West Wing Office

 

South African fascist and megalomaniac Elon Musk (a.k.a. Kekius Maximus, or Maximus Anus) won't be joining the insiders around the Malignant Fascist in the West Wing of the White House, thanks to chief of staff Susie Wiles according to a recent report:

"The 'ice maiden' at the heart of the Trump administration has won her first big battle this week — denying Elon Musk a permanent base in the West Wing of the White House. [snip]

Wiles, 67, wasted no time laying down the law to the new president’s staff, making it clear that 'anyone who cannot be counted on to be collaborative and focused on our shared goals isn’t working in the West Wing'. She has warned that she does not welcome 'people who want to work solo or be a star'. (our emphasis)

That last comment was clearly aimed at Musk as well as much lesser would-be "stars" on the make. Musk has been freelancing to the extent that many are referring to him as "President Musk," often preempting the MF on budget decisions or undercutting him, irritating many of the MF's key staff. The article continues:

"Wiles was sitting in the Oval Office on a chair to the side of the Resolute desk when Trump was asked by a reporter during a signing session for executive orders if Musk would be getting an office in the West Wing. 'No,' Trump said. 'He’s getting an office for about 20 people that we’re hiring to make sure that these [savings] get implemented.'

His chief of staff remained poker-faced but this marked a significant victory. There was relief among long-term Trump backers on the West Wing staff who resent Musk’s rapid ascent after declaring his support only last summer.

There was another sign of Wiles’s determination to put some distance between Musk and Trump in the executive order setting up Doge, which stated that its chief administrator must report to her." (our emphasis)

Superb! Not only does Kekius get shunted over to the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, he's told he has to report to Wiles and not the MF directly. We'll need a lot of popcorn for the coming, utterly characteristic infighting.
