Musk Reassures Trump That They’ll Find Other Reasons to Start Wars in Middle East if we Move From Gas to Electric Cars
As Musk wraps up his time at DOGE we wanted to take a look back at an early conversation between him and Trump.
Musk Reassures Trump That They’ll Find Other Reasons to Start Wars in Middle East if we Move From Gas to Electric Cars
Following Musk’s appointment as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Trump and Musk met privately at Mar-A-Largo to discuss topics such as foreign affairs, sustainability, and penis length. The conversation allegedly grew heated when Musk asked Trump to subsidize electric cars over gas cars. Trump lashed out, shouting that oil is the only justification they have for killing brown children in the Middle East. Without it, he claimed, we wouldn’t be able to lie to the public about why we’re in so many wars.
Musk reassured Trump that there will never be peace in the Middle East -- even if they do start using electric cars. Musk claimed that there are many other fake reasons to start wars, like “terrorism” or “weapons of mass destruction” or “communism.” They could even make up a new one if they wanted or simply ramp up their collab with Netanyahu.
Despite the argument, Trump and Musk left the meeting in high spirits. Both exited the conference room smiling, a bit sweaty, and their shirts swapped. They told reporters that they look forward to their continued partnership throughout Trump’s term.
