Summary
“I have been in the same room with Elon, and he always tries to be funny. And he’s not funny. Like, at all,” a senior Trump administration official told Rolling Stone. “He makes these jokes and little asides and smiles and then looks almost hurt if you don’t lap up his humor. I keep using the word ‘annoying’; a lot of people who have to deal with him do.”
Musk’s insufferable behavior has caused several high-ranking officials to walk out of important meetings and sincerely question if he was high on drugs, the publication reports, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio is said to be barely able to hide his immense dislike of the DOGE chief and State Department officials routinely call him “Crazy Uncle Elon” behind his back.
Other officials have suggested subjecting Musk to a mandatory drug test, which he has said is a “great idea” for federal employees, as a way to push him out of the door. The Tesla CEO has denied taking any illegal drugs, although numerous people claim to have witnessed him use LSD, cocaine, Ecstasy, and mushrooms behind closed doors, the Wall Street Journal reports.

It’s amazing that he can do LSD, mushrooms, and ex and still have zero empathy.
I’m surprised Ketamine isn’t in this list, I thought it was his drug of choice this past year?
I really doubt Elon is who he is and uses acid or shrooms. That just sounds like reefer madness nonsense to me.
To be fair, this said behind closed doors. He does the ketamine out in the open, claiming it was prescribed to him.
I wish we could dispel the myth that psychedelics make you peaceful and empathetic. In my experience and in my friend group they seem to make you be 100x what you already are. If you’re empathetic you become an empathy monster, if you’re analytical you start breaking things down, if you’re an annoying asshole you’re someone who should be kicked out of the room because that times 1000 is too much.
Ifs hes combining it with ketamine, cocaine and alcohol, it makes sense
Musk is so poor all he has is money.
He thought having more money would make him powerful and therefore likable, and he’s in the FA stage.
If he decided to do something like solve world hunger instead of buying Twitter a lot of people would begrudgingly give him some respect at least.
He’s a narcissist. He psychologically is unable to think that way. For him power comes from mone, so he cannot give it away. If he’s not rich, then he’s not special. He’s no one.
You’re telling me the guy who thought this was hilarious, isn’t funny?
Yeah, that tracks.
Edit: For anyone OOTL he walked into Twitter HQ with a sink and tweeted “Entering Twitter HQ - let that sink in!”
I’ve never seen anybody put that much effort into a pun.
Puns are never very funny. The best you can normally hope for is a small chuckle. And yet he went with a full, big, heavy prop for a tired pun.

Never go full Carrot Top.
Even Carrot Top knew that prop comedy only works if you have a lot of small, light props that you go through quickly. Walking around with a heavy sink might get you as jacked as Carrot Top, but you’re not going to get the laughs.
True. Say what you will about prop comedy but Carrot Top didn’t get famous because he was bad at it.
I’m still amazed he became a Vegas resident comic. Like, he wasn’t that unfunny but he was never anybody’s favorite comic.
I once saw some clip of a carrot top show and he did admittedly make me laugh. I do like puns though
Captain soft hands almost dropped that thing. It’s hilarious how weak he is for such an alpha
I mean that’s kind of funny though
Okay Elon.
No I’m actually funny
I’m sure you believe that dear. Now shoo.
Why so mean?
I’m a bit confused, cause Trump isn’t funny. It must be awful to be in a room with either of them.
Trump is funny to conservatives. The kind who laugh at the attack helicopter joke. Elon isn’t even funny to conservatives, which is kind of impressive.
A shy guy who desperately wants to be a nerd’s nerd somehow gets tangled with the party of RAM truck buying adult frat bros who see themselves as “alpha”. I just can’t figure out the culture fit, and articles like this don’t surprise me at all. Like, isn’t Trump the kind of guy who would endlessly bully someone for saying they play videogames at all?
They are definitely NOT “tired” of his money though.
He probably thinks “lolrandom” humor is the peak of comedy.
he already revealed what he thinks is comedy when he talked about his pitch to SNL. it’s unbelievable.
His reaction to the dead deer in the pewdiepie episode all those years ago was what first caught my eye about this lol
I’m a killjoy: I doubt that this article is accurate, or if it even matters. I think articles like this exist to placate. I wouldn’t trust anything that a “senior administration official” tells Rolling Stone.
Absolutely, these looks like a pat on the back to everyone to make them feel better about Elon and their country.
Reeks of bullshit.
Im tired of pig fucking fascists regardless if they’re funny or not.
“behavior has caused several high-ranking officials to walk out of important meetings and sincerely question if he was high on drugs”
Bet you dollars to donuts that he is, so, yes.
People are leaking to get Musk kicked out. Imagine how ill-behaved one must be to get kicked out of that room.
Not to mention the constant k-hole he seems to be in
Despite fitting right in. Weird.
Trump officials deserve everything that is coming to them, and that includes dealing with an attention-seeking narcissistic billionaire who owns their boss.
All world-historical personages happen twice; first as Rasputin, then as Musk.
We can only hope they all end the same way twice.
Rasputin had a huge dick whereas Musk is a huge dick. Math checks out.
Who’s the Russian Queen now?
I don’t believe anything what this Administration says.
