Summary
Trump allies are urging the White House to curb Elon Musk’s media presence after his controversial remarks on Social Security.
Musk called it “the biggest Ponzi scheme” and suggested eliminating entitlement spending, conflicting with Trump’s vow to preserve benefits.
Musk’s cost-cutting measures have led to Social Security office closures and reduced phone services, sparking backlash from both parties.
Critics warn Musk’s comments could jeopardize Trump’s 2026 campaign, while Democrats capitalize on the issue. The White House continues to insist Musk’s views do not reflect Trump’s policy.
Just because he says a lot of stupid shit that his followers accept as truth doesn’t mean he should be restricted from saying that stupid shit. Every time he opens his mouth more people wake up to the realization of how dangerous he is. It’s a public service if you think about it.
