Elon Musk’s official role in Trump’s Stoge ends, but his political impact remains ahead of the media

As Elon Musk, the richest person in the world, said, his role in the direction of the President Donald Trump (DOGE) Government Efficiency Department (DOGE) has come to an end.

However, the president, on a social media post, on Thursday night, announcing that he and Musk would join for a press conference at 13:30 Blanca in the White House on Friday, mocked that Musk would continue to help the Trump administration.

“This will be your last day, but not really, because it will always be with us, helping -all the way. Elon is fantastic!”

The political impact of Musk on national politics and the coming -term election of next year, for good or for worse, is far from ending and it is likely that his official departure from the Trump administration will be very good.

What happens to Doo

Trump, after winning the White House in the election last November, created DOGE with marching orders for the federal government review and reduction. Trump appointed Musk, the CEO of Tesla and Spacex, and Trump’s largest politician in the 2024 election, to lead the organization.

“Elon Musk made the most serious attempt to reduce the size and extent of the government in modern political history. It was sometimes chaotic but shocking,” Veteran Strategy Gop Ryan Williams told Fox.

Williams predicted that “Musk’s efforts will continue to last as political football, but also a guide for Republicans if they are serious to limit the growth of the federal government.”

After returning to the White House in January, Musk and Doo quickly devastated the federal agencies, rooting what the new administration argued was billions of missed federal expenses. In addition, they brought a meat to federal workforce, leading to a mass reduction of employees.

Nothing symbolized the controversial Musk movements more than his branding on a chainsaw during a February appearance at the Maga Conservative Political Action Conference, where he announced “how easy” was to “save billions of dollars sometimes in … an hour”.

Stoge’s movements took tons of national care and triggered a large number of demands in response. Many of the government cuts in the government workforce were affected or reversed by the orders of the federal courts.

Although DOGE was originally commissioned to reduce $ 2 trillion from the Federal Government Budget, DOGE website earlier this week said that their efforts had so far saved $ 175 million due to assets sales, contract cancellations, fraud paid cuts, as well as other steps to eliminate costs.

Musk’s criticism at Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill frustra

Musk’s arrival in the country’s capital came at a glance.

Thanks to a direct pipeline to the President and his powerful mouth at the place of social networks X, Musk instantly and repeatedly made headlines with their provocative movements and the orientation of people they did not like, often at the stir of Trump’s administration officials and Capitol Hill Republicans.

Trump repeatedly praised the efforts of Musk and Doo.

“The vast majority of people in this country really respect you and thank you, and this whole room can say that very strongly; you really have been a tremendous help,” said the President during a cabinet meeting four weeks ago, when Musk announced that he would reduce the time spent in Doo and the Trump administration.

However, there was much less harmony between the racks.

“People became ill quickly,” a veteran Republican strategist with links with the administration and the Hill chapter who asked to remain anonymous to speak more freedom at Fox News.

“It was fun to start,” he said the strategy, before adding that “people inside and around the administration and people from outside were” tired of musc “at the end, when they were sitting at a meeting that was carrying several hats in the head.”

In addition, Musk’s recent criticism of Trump’s wide “great bill”, which approved a major congressional obstacle, did not help issues.

While a large number of public opinion polls, including Fox News national surveys, indicated that the North -Americans like the idea of ​​reducing the size of the federal government, these same polls showed that the public was far from exciting -in the way Musk and Dooce carried out cuts to federal bureaucracy.

White House reveals the next steps to DOGE after the Musk departure

Musk, who spent about $ 300 million in support of Trump’s 2024 White House victory, quickly became a relief cane in the handful of special elections and special elections that were held earlier this year.

Through aligned political groups, Musk traveled about $ 20 million in the State State Supreme Court of Wisconsin, in support of Judge Brad Schimel, with Trump’s support, the conservative candidate for the election.

Musk, in a controversial play, handed over a million dollars in a manifestation in Green Bay two nights ahead of the election to two Wisconsin voters who had already launched ballots in the contest and signed a request to stop “activist judges”.

Musk, at the rally, put on a heady hat (a foam wedge that resembles a piece of cheese) that traditionally wears the devotees fans of Green Bay Packers’ football in Wisconsin and the country.

However, Schimel ended up losing 10 points against the Democratic aligned candidate in what was supposed to be a nearby contest. Musk ended up being tagged very hard on a race that partially became a referendum on his efforts to DOGE.

The best five most wild moments in Musk’s possession

Democrats repeatedly made Musk the Bogeyman in his messaging in the Wisconsin elections and other competitions, and pledged to continue to go to the coming coming next year’s election, when Republicans would defend their majority of the razor house and their modest majority of the Senate.

“ The most important of the voters are the problems of the pocket notebook. Democrats will win by emphasizing the fact that Republicans are not reducing costs because they are too busy to boost tax reductions for ultra-rich and large companies, while the rest of us pay for them, ” said Fox News, the Secretary of the press press press, Viet Shelton.

Shelton emphasized that “Elon is, and will forever be, a manifestation immediately recognized that the Chamber’s Republicans do not work for the American people, they work for billionaires.”

So, the possible political risks of Musk were the Republicans behind their departure from the country’s captain?

A GOP strategist close to GOP legislators, when asked if Musk’s welcome was worn out among Congress Republicans, he said “yes to a point.”

“But I think the greatest question about whether Musk and Doo are liabilities in the intermediates, I would say emphatically not,” added the strategy, which requested that anonymity speak more freedom.

The strategist said that GOP legislators “who talked about waste, frauds and abuses and talked about the savings generated by DOGE, have done it quite well. They are the people who do not want to send -they have not put the Democrats in the defense, who are tired of Musk.”

In addition, the veteran Republican strategist Matt Gorman does not agree with the argument of the Democrats on the lasting impact of Musk on the trail of the campaign.

“I don’t think Elon Musk in any way is a factor in one way or another during the year we have until the day of the 2026 election,” said Gorman, a veteran of numerous presidential campaigns and all of the state, in Fox News.
