MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell criticizes Elon Musk's recent Oval Office visit with former President Donald Trump, calling it the 'most powerless image of a President of the United States ever created by a camera.' O'Donnell argues that Musk's actions, including his casual attire, presence of his child, and speaking more than Trump, conveyed a message of defiance against Trump's authority.
Musk stood over Trump “delivering a picture of presidential subservience the likes of which we have never seen,” said O’Donnell. It was “the most powerless image of a President of the United States ever created by a camera,” said “The Last Word” host.
By O’Donnell’s reckoning, Musk spoke 3,666 words while defending the work of DOGE, compared to Trump’s 2,487 words.“never had a day like that in the Oval Office with Donald Trump,” said O’Donnell.
