Advertising executives allege that Elon Musk may be using his newfound government power to threaten them to increase their spending on his social media platform, X.
If true, the allegations confirm what America has long suspected of Musk: it is dangerous to give a private, unelected citizen the level of power Donald Trump has awarded him. Since Trump’s inauguration, Musk has essentially become co-president of the United States. He hovers around the president 24/7, does joint interviews with Trump, and seems to be calling the shots on what government departments to dismantle and funds to cut. It’s unprecedented for any private citizen to have this level of proximity and power over the president, but it’s especially dangerous that this person is Musk, a billionaire with conflicts of interest all over the government. Given that the Trump administration claimed he had been entrusted to self-police himself, nothing is stopping him from using the government to benefit himself or using his proximity to Trump as leverage.
