PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP POINTING ON A NEW POSSIBLE “FIRST LADY”
In a move that has left both political analysts and late-night comedians scrambling for fresh material, President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly considering Elon Musk as his new “First Lady.” The main reason for such move is that according to Trump, “Elon is around more often than Melania, and frankly, he gets me.”
The revelation was first leaked during a private meeting at Mar-a-Lago, where Trump reportedly described Musk as the greatest ally ever, praising his frequent public support on social media.
“Elon has been there for me, more than anyone,” Trump allegedly said. “He retweets me, he likes my truth posts, and have you seen the cars? Fantastic cars. Not as good as my properties, but still tremendous.”
Melania Trump, who has maintained a notably low profile after Trump was elected for his second term as president, was unavailable for comment. Sources close to her, however, suggested that she has been completely unbothered by the news, with one insider claiming she’s just happy to avoid any more awkward photo ops.
Supposedly Trump has hinted several times to his team about such change, commenting that “Melania is great, absolutely great. But Elon – he is a genius. He’s like a rocket man, but not the bad kind, like Kim Jong-un. He’s the kind of partner who understands me. I mean, who else could build a spaceship and still find time to tweet about how unfairly I’m treated?”
Elon Musk, for his part, has neither confirmed nor denied the rumors, instead cryptically tweeting, “Mars First Ladies? 🚀👑 #StayTuned.” Musk’s growing influence in Trump’s orbit has been undeniable, with the two reportedly discussing everything from creating a Trump-branded satellite network to establishing a golf course on the moon.
Political commentators have speculated whether this “First Lady shake-up” could be a clever distraction from Trump’s ongoing legal troubles. One expert joked, should Elon promise Trump a self-driving presidential limo, Melania might be packing her bags tomorrow.
As the story develops, one thing is clear: Washington hasn’t seen drama like this since Andrew Jackson’s pet parrot was ejected from his funeral for swearing.
