Ex-Trump Aide Names The Elon Musk Attack That's 'Going To Stick The Most' With President

Alyssa Farah Griffin speaks at The Common Good Town Hall "Bridging America's Divide" at New-York Historical Society on June 04, 2024 in New York City. Ex-White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin on Thursday revealed that Elon Musk’s dig at the remaining time in Donald Trump’s presidency is exactly what he’s “afraid of” amid his fallout with the billionaire.Musk, in a post to his social media platform, offered far-right conspiracist Laura Loomer “some food for thought” after she claimed that Republicans are debating whether to take the side of the “the most powerful man in the world” or “the richest man in the world” in their explosive public clash.“Trump has 3.5 years left as President, but I will be around for 40+ years …,” Musk wrote.In a CNN appearance, Griffin said that attack — despite posts tying him to the Jeffrey Epstein files and predicting his tariffs will cause a recession — is “going to stick the most” with Trump as it essentially calls him a “lame-duck president.”She argued that if Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” doesn’t meet the 60-vote threshold needed to avoid a filibuster in the Senate and doesn’t end up passing, that could be a blow to his “entire legislative agenda” with the midterms around the corner next year.“He’s realising, like, this is the most damaging thing at this moment that could be happening,” said Griffin of Trump.Griffin — who described the Musk-Trump breakup as “wild” — said countless Republicans in Congress are now weighing getting “crosswise” with Musk if they’re running again in 2026 as the billionaire is willing to spend “endlessly” in their district should they back the bill.Other Republican lawmakers not up for reelection “might wait it out,” she predicted, as they don’t want to get on Trump’s “bad side.”Related...Social Media Gleefully Celebrates End Of Elon Musk-Donald Trump BromanceElon Musk Says Donald Trump Is In The Jeffrey Epstein FilesDonald Trump Says He's 'Very Disappointed' In Elon Musk As Rift Grows
