Billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk is leaving the Trump administration after leading a tumultuous efficiency drive during which he upended several federal agencies but failed to deliver the generational savings he had sought.

A White House official told Reuters on Wednesday night that it was accurate Musk is leaving the administration and his "off-boarding will begin tonight.”

His departure was quick and unceremonious. He did not have a formal conversation with Trump before announcing his departure, according to a source with knowledge of the matter, who added that his exit was decided “at a senior staff level.”

    First of all he already ruined the nation. We’re fucked.

    Second, he gutted everyone who had any chance of stopping his various evil companies from doing evil shit. Mission accomplished on his part.

    Third, if there were any justice he’d see it all completely undone and rot for the rest of his life in prison. But, since he’s the richest man on the planet, there will NOT be ANY justice, and the best we can hope for is that he flies the fuck to Mars where he can be the Martian emperor and hopefully not bother the rest of us.

    Fuck him. Fuck all of his companies. I used to love SpaceX and even Tesla (Pre-pandemic they made really good cars, my friends had some, they kicked ass.) Now? Burn it all down and like I said I hope he fucks off to Mars, preferably taking God-Emperor Trump with him.
