Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) predicted in a Sunday interview that tech billionaire Elon Musk’s influence over President-elect Trump will end.
“When does this end?” ABC News’s Jonathan Karl asked Christie on “This Week” of Musk’s influence on Trump.
“It ends when Trump believes that something has gone wrong, and he needs someone to blame and Musk becomes the person to blame. And no one knows how long that will take,” Christie responded.
Musk heavily supported Trump in his bid for the presidency, endorsing him following an assassination attempt against the president-elect in July. He also made appearances at rallies for Trump and started America PAC, a pro-Trump super PAC, giving $118 million to the committee.
“You know, the people who sit at the very center with Trump have a shelf life, and that shelf life is influenced by outside events, as Speaker [Mike] Johnson is finding out right now,” Christie said on ABC.
Earlier this week, Trump and some of his allies recently pushed against a government funding deal negotiated by Johnson, even as a Friday deadline to avoid a government shutdown has loomed.
“Any member of the House or Senate who votes for this outrageous spending bill deserves to be voted out in 2 years!” Musk said Wednesday on the social platform X.
In his Sunday “This Week” appearance, Christie said Musk “doesn't stand in front of 20,000 people and have them chant his name, no matter how rich he is, which is what was happening to him on the campaign trail.”
“You know, sometimes it’s hard for folks to understand how intoxicating this can be for some people,” Christie said.
