Social media mockingly reminds Donald Trump that it's Elon Musk who is in charge

Due to the fact that either Americans have short memories or are incredibly sadomasochistic, we are now again saddled with Donald Trump in the White House. Besides the absolute inanity of my fellow countrymen, and a vicious right-wing ecosystem, Trump's "comeback" is due the help of Elon Musk, the world's wealthiest man. 

That's right. Marvel universe has Tony Stark. DC universe had Bruce Wayne.  We in the real world, however, have a pale, bloated import from South Africa with delusions of grandeur so enormous that it would make a James Bond villain look like Joan of Arc. And unfortunately, the money to back them up and an enormous army of fanboys telling him how they enjoy inhaling whiffs of his flatulence.

We are so in for it for however long Trump remains in office. One small consolation is the fact that since Musk contributed to Trump's victory, he feels the need to butt in. Trump has indulged his nonsense by creating a presidential advisory committee, DOGE, especially for Musk to supposedly seek out and eliminate government waste.  I think it's rather stupid on Trump's part. Granted, he isn't exactly a symbol of basic intelligence in the first place, but every time I think about it all, I am reminded of the saying "if you let the devil ride, he's going to want to drive."

We'll see how long Musk and Trump can "work" in tandem before the adage becomes true. In the meantime, folks on social media have the right idea as to who may be actually in charge,

Save these memes. I have a feeling that they will be coming in handy.

Editor's note - Facebook removed my post because the below picture of Trump with a ball gag in his mouth was thought to be sexually obscene. I replaced with the above pic.








I thought this one below was deliciously brutal:

As was this one:
