Donald Trump's inner circle fear he could be losing control over 'First Buddy' Elon Musk after the billionaire publicly criticized the president's AI project.
Tesla founder Musk has had unprecedented access to Trump both during his 2024 campaign and since he won the November election, revealing that he joined the president inside the Oval Office on Tuesday as he signed executive orders.
But MAGA insiders revealed to Politico there are concerns Musk could continue to go rogue after he recently mocked a $500billion AI investment that Trump had hailed as 'monumental' and 'tremendous.'
'The problem is the president doesn't have any leverage over him and Elon gives zero f**ks,' the insider said.
'It's clear he has abused the proximity to the president.'
