MEDIA: Elon Musk is distancing himself from Trump: 'I don't want to take responsibility for everything'

Fortune's Christiann Hetzner on whether Donald Trump will attempt to
enlist Peter Thiel's VP JD Vance to serve as Deputy Chief Sales Critter
for Trump's bipartisan, comprehensive, merit-based immigration reform
legislative legacy authored by the Cheap Labor Lobby and passed by Mike
Johnson's House.GOV and John Thune's Senate.GOV and whether Thiel will
allow Vance to commit political suicide:

| Whether Trump celebrated Thanksgiving with family in Mar-a-Lago or
| attended sporting events like a UFC match or Army-Navy game, Musk
| never strayed far from his side. He called himself the "First
| Buddy," but others argued he acted more like a co-president.
|
| Trump was protective of Musk, initially--even turning the White
| House South Lawn into an impromptu Tesla showroom.
|
| When Musk lashed out at MAGA supporters over their opposition of the
| H-1B visa, Trump backed the Tesla CEO over his own base.

What will be the foreign born population in Howard Lutnick's Census.GOV
headcounts and share of the American labor market in Lori Chavez-
DeRemer's DoL.GOV surveys and how does Susie Wiles recommend Trump's
endorsed successor sell the hard facts on the ground to those legacy
American proles who thought they voted against their dispossession in
2024?
