Trump Dismisses 'President Musk' Claims in Phoenix, Citing Musk's Foreign Birth as Disqualification
Dec 22, 2024, 09:44 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has publicly dismissed claims that he has ceded the presidency to Elon Musk, calling such assertions a 'hoax.' Speaking at a recent event, Trump stated, 'No, he’s not going to be President, that I can tell you. I’m safe. You know why? He can’t be; he wasn’t born in this country.' Trump emphasized that while he appreciates Musk's contributions, particularly in technology and innovation, the notion of Musk assuming the presidency is unfounded. He reiterated that Musk's foreign birth disqualifies him from holding the office, reinforcing his position amidst ongoing discussions about Musk's influence in Washington. Trump's remarks came in response to growing criticism from Democrats regarding Musk's role in the administration and his involvement in legislative matters, including recent budget negotiations.
