Some Democrats have started referring to Elon Musk as “President Musk” after he was appointed head of Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Representative Jim McGovern humorously claimed Musk was in charge, with Trump now playing a secondary role. Critics have raised concerns about Musk’s influence in the government, questioning his power over Trump’s decisions. In a Fox News interview, both Musk and Trump discussed these claims, with Trump expressing respect for Musk’s achievements, including SpaceX’s advancements. They also commented on NASA astronauts’ prolonged stay on the International Space Station, attributing it to political reasons.
