    It’s interesting that Musk is sending this, probably personally and likely without getting specific approval from Trump before sending it, and the agencies are responding to ignore it in what is clearly a direct response to Musk.

    Musk acts. Many cabinet departments act in response. Meanwhile, Trump is a passive non-participant in his own administration.

    (To say nothing of Congress thus far.)

      Trump’s beyond being able to be involved in day to day activities of governing, oportunists just do thing around him. Remember last time he was firing off dozens of incoherent tweets at all hours of the day and night? Unless I’m missing something that’s not happening in the same way this time, on musk’s or his sites.

        None of these plans are Trump’s. Everything he’s signed is provided to him by other russians/fascists/oligarchs. He’s just the cult leader who goes golfing every other day.
