“Musk is not just Trump's co-president—he is the head dude in charge,” says Chris Hayes on Musk calling for Republicans to shut down the government—before Trump even weighed in. Punchbowl’s Melanie Zanona joins to discuss.
As I saw this I had a thought. It’s long been touted that Trump doesn’t really have any money he’s just massively in debt and lives by borrowing against his assets. Not sure if this is true or not.
However if it is, what if Musk just bought up all that debt. So all the money Trump owes he owes to Musk.

Effectively then he owns the president.
Was that not the concern in 2016 as well? That he had large debts to undisclosed people who might influence him, “off the record.”
Again I remember rumours about that then as well. It seems as though this is an advanced version of that, crystallising into one person.
You mean Russia?
