Summary
Democratic strategist Chai Komanduri claims Elon Musk has “taken over” MAGA and the Republican Party, likening it to how Trump originally took control of the GOP.
Musk, a former Biden supporter, shifted to Republicans over disagreements on free speech, immigration, and public health.
Now a close Trump ally, Musk has donated $75 million to pro-Trump groups and will co-lead the “Department of Government Efficiency” to reduce government waste.
His rising influence in GOP politics is seen as positioning him as a potential MAGA successor.
At least he can’t be president…yet
Very unlikely the US passes a constitutional amendment just to allow him to be. Constitutional amendments are hard to pass even when a majority of people agree on something, and a lot of people would not support allowing foreign-born presidents.
