Will White House be big enough for Trump -- and Musk?

Raw Story  

by Aurélia END Donald Trump will be the one taking the presidential oath next week, but in some respects, billionaire Elon Musk might as well place his hand on the Bible too. "Elon Musk is rich, and brash, and he is constantly reminding Donald Trump how wonderful Donald Trump is -- which are all things Donald Trump likes," Loge said. Even before Trump's inauguration -- he takes the oath on January 20 -- Musk appears to be running into his first doses of political reality. According to Castellani, Musk's close relationship with the incoming president recalls those of the "robber barons" of the late 19th and 20th centuries -- men like Cornelius Vanderbilt, Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan -- "who had enormous economic power and political influence." "We welcomed the tech bros when they came running our way to avoid the 3rd grade teacher picking their kid's gender," Florida Republican Matt Gaetz wrote on social media.
