Bannon’s Attack on Musk: MAGA Infighting Intensifies
Steve Bannon, a former Trump strategist, has launched scathing attacks against Elon Musk, calling him a “parasitic illegal immigrant” and accusing him of undermining American traditions. These criticisms highlight a growing rift among Trump loyalists, fueled by Musk’s expanding influence within the Trump administration and his leadership of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Bannon accuses Musk of failing to deliver on promised spending cuts, particularly within the Pentagon, while Musk dismisses Bannon’s criticisms as those of a “great talker, but not a great doer.” Despite his concerns, Bannon acknowledges President Trump’s continued support for Musk.
