White House staffers reportedly have a problem with Elon Musk…
Reports have recently surfaced which show that White House staff feared that Elon Musk would embarrass Joe Biden and the current administration.
Embarrass is a very broad term, but this signals that they are fearful of Musk—who wields considerable sway over public opinion.
Could it be that the Biden administration has more to fear than simply being pressed as to why Tesla is being ignored in the broader policy conversation surrounding electric vehicles?
It’s no secret that the current ‘President’ has been at the center of many reports suggesting that he is in cognitive decline; could hiding this be an unspoken motivation behind staffer’s concerns?
The latest reports indicate:

The New York Post claims:
Some of Biden’s top advisers have purportedly warned against inviting Musk to the White House over fears he would say something to embarrass the administration.
The billionaire has repeatedly slammed the White House for failing to mention Tesla while discussing its plans for major nationwide investments in electric vehicles.

CNBC adds:
Some in the administration have privately called Musk names, such as “a–hole,” for what he has said about Biden, according to people with knowledge of the situation.
“I have nothing against Biden otherwise, apart from general concern about more deficit spending, which would apply to any president, and actively supported the Obama-Biden election,” Musk told CNBC on Tuesday.
