Trump’s chief of staff had scheme to control Musk — its failure could blow up GOP: analyst

Raw Story  

Donald Trump’s nominee for chief of staff worried that Elon Musk’s connection to the president-elect was bad news and she worked to keep the billionaire’s power under control, a columnist wrote Tuesday. Marcotte wrote that “it’s a safe bet” that Wiles created the Department of Government Efficiency as a way to contain Musk — putting him in a “presidential advisory committee” with no real power. “Alas for her, Musk has Twitter and he uses it the same way Trump did in his first term, to rile up supporters and create so much noise that those who are putting the leader on "ignore" are forced to kowtow to whims frequently spouted in the hours when more sober people are sleeping,” Marcotte wrote. In this case, he's swiping Trump's strategy of using Twitter mobbing tactics to work around the bureaucratic obstacles.” Marcotte wrote that Musk used this tactic during the spending bill votes last week, effectively brow-beating Republicans to do his will.
