Elon Musk butthurt after White House snub

Tesla and SpaceX CEO and billionaire Elon Musk recently took to social media to criticize President Joe Biden and call him a "damp sock puppet" for not inviting him to a White House meeting for top business leaders.

Musk, 50, blasted Biden in a series of tweets on Thursday in which he described the POTUS as a “damp socket puppet in human form," according to Fox Business. The tweets were sent as a reply to Biden’s tweet stating that “Companies like GM and Ford are building more electric vehicles here at home than ever before.”

The White House invited several top business leaders, including General Motors CEO Mary Barra and Ford Motor CEO Jim Farley, to a meeting on Jan. 26 to discuss Biden's $1.75 trillion Build Back Better (BBB) bill. Musk was not invited to the meeting.

The meeting was held to discuss how the BBB bill will “make the U.S. economy more competitive, increase worker productivity and workforce participation, lower inflation over the long-term, and strengthen business growth,” a White House official said, Reuters reported.

He's an asshole and would probably have been disruptive in some way. He's a narcissistic richboi. We've had enough of those for now.
