This could be the way.” If Musk is chosen to replace current Speaker Mike Johnson, it would represent a futher accumulation of power and influence over the direction of the Republican agenda after the tech billionaire donated $277 million to elect Donald Trump and allies, and was chosen to lead the president-elect’s Department of Government Efficiency iniative. If Mike proves to be as tough as he is, he has a great chance.” When Musk was asked if he wanted to be speaker, he told the broadcaster with a laugh: “Should I be?” Democrats, meanwhile, have criticized Republicans for their eagerness to hand power over to Musk, arguing it’s undemocratic for an unelected billionaire who bought his way into the White House to have so influence, and creates confusion. I have to do some homework on who this man really is.” Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders accused Republicans of annointing a newly unelected “President Elon Musk” to steer the direction of the agenda.
