Democrats Target Elon Musk as Trump’s ‘Strong‑Man’ Endorsements Falter
After midterm victories, Democrats move to probe Musk’s actions while Trump’s own candidates lose, and the press mocks the effort.
Democrats have set their sights on an Elon Musk probe following recent midterm wins, and Rep. Jamie Raskin says he feels “pretty certain” that at least one committee will investigate DOGE.
Raskin also labeled Musk’s cost‑cutting effort a “catastrophe,” while Illinois Governor Pritzker drew a surprising line on the proposed Musk probe.
Trump spent weeks praising his favored midterm candidates’ physiques, from jawlines to shoulders, yet most of those candidates lost in the midterms, according to the report that names Donald Trump as the president involved.
The Guardian described the strategy as either “a last-ditch considered strategy to win votes, or the ramblings of an increasingly unhinged and increasingly amorous party leader,” and concluded, “Either way, it didn’t work.”
