Elon Musk and Trump Might Actually Break Up Next Year: What Will Happen to D.O.G.E Then?
Donald Trump and Elon Musk might be heading for a breakup, and it’s not the kind of split anyone saw coming. Even before officially reclaiming the Oval Office, the president is already facing whispers that Elon has too much influence over his presidency.
If they part ways next year, the ambitious project—the Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E)—would be thrown into chaos.
“Let’s get one thing straight,” Trump reportedly said onstage in Phoenix during Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest conference. “No, he’s not going to be president, that I can tell you. And I’m safe. You know why he can’t be? He wasn’t born in this country.” The crowd erupted in cheers, chanting Trump’s name as smoke and sparklers lit up the stage. Trump, in his signature red tie, basked in the attention.
Tensions Rise as Elon Overshadows Trump
The partnership between the billionaire tech mogul and the president began with grand promises but now feels like a ticking time bomb.
Elon’s unpredictable nature and growing political influence have started to rub Trump the wrong way. Last week, Elon derailed an emergency spending measure in Congress, drawing criticism from both Democrats and Republicans.
Insiders reveal that Trump is increasingly frustrated with Elon’s rising profile, particularly as his involvement with D.O.G.E draws public attention. Elon’s focus on defunding organizations like the IRS and Federal Reserve is overshadowing Trump’s administration in ways the president doesn’t appreciate.
“He’s not running the country. Not ever,” Trump declared, shutting down rumors that Elon might want to run for office. “The Constitution says you have to be born here. He wasn’t. End of story.”
What Happens to D.O.G.E Without Elon?
Without formal approval from Congress, D.O.G.E functions as more of a high-profile advisory group than an actual federal department. Its mission to cut $2 trillion in wasteful spending by July 4, 2026, depends heavily on Elon’s leadership.
Elon’s reputation for innovation and disruption is crucial to the project. Without him, D.O.G.E would lose its most valuable asset. While Vivek Ramaswamy is a capable entrepreneur, he doesn’t command the same influence.
Critics warn that D.O.G.E’s ambitious plans could trigger layoffs, disrupt public services, and create chaos in government operations. Without Elon’s leadership, even these shaky plans might completely collapse.
The Fallout of a Trump-Elon Split
A Trump-Elon breakup would have repercussions far beyond D.O.G.E. Many of Trump’s supporters have embraced Elon as a key ally in the fight against Washington’s entrenched bureaucracy.
If Elon walks away, Trump risks losing the tech-savvy younger crowd and wealthy donors who admire Elon’s vision. On the other hand, breaking ties might help Trump regain control over his narrative.
However, the risks are real. The Republican Party is already showing signs of internal division. House Republicans have become increasingly defiant, with some openly ignoring Trump’s directives.
Losing Elon could embolden these groups, making it harder for Trump to control the party and push his agenda. It might also pave the way for new GOP leaders who favor traditional conservative values over Trump’s populist style.
