    Yes, he was completely submissive to Musk and his little X brat! I kind of marveled at how he sat there and took shit from them in that office and I knew Musk owned him. I don’t really think the Epstein thing is that important. Everyone already knows about it, and his followers won’t believe it or won’t care. If a crime, I think it would have to be something bigger. Like on the level of the conspiracy theory that Musk was able to rig the election in some states (though I’m not sure even that would be prosecuted). But then Musk would also be incriminated.

    I think it’s more likely that there was a huge sum of money trump was going to get paid, that Musk had control of until the investigations into Musk and his companies got shut down and all the billions in government contracts to his companies were signed and delivered, then once trump finally got paid for the services rendered, he doesn’t need Musk anymore, so he’s out.

    The thing that was never considered by a lot of people who helped get trump in power for their own gain, both the first time and this time, is that once he’s in there he has the full power of the government to go after you if you don’t toe the line. He can ruin them financially and even put them in prison now. They forgot, trump never honors a deal. He’ll screw you over the minute you no longer have something he needs or can no longer threaten him.
