A source told NBC that Musk has begun to wear on people close to Trump’s inner circle, particularly those who believe he is overstepping his role in the transition to the White House.
“He’s behaving as if he’s a co-president and making sure everyone knows it,” one source told NBC. “And he’s sure taking lots of credit for the president’s victory. Bragging about America PAC and X to anyone who will listen. He’s trying to make President Trump feel indebted to him. And the president is indebted to no one.”
Elon hasn’t commented on the claims himself. However, in a statement, Trump-Vance transition spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said they are “great friends.”
“Elon Musk and President Trump are great friends and brilliant leaders working together to Make America Great Again. Elon Musk is a once in a generation business leader and our federal bureaucracy will certainly benefit from his ideas and efficiency.”
Melania Trump’s true feelings about Elon Musk
In another statement, Trump-Vance spokesperson Anna Kelly said: “Elon Musk is a genius, an innovator, and has literally made history by building creative, modern, and efficient systems. Elon Musk has dedicated himself to America’s future by offering to serve with President Trump to ensure our government works more efficiently and uses America’s taxpayer dollars effectively.”
Trump has announced that Elon Musk will co-lead a new “Department of Government Efficiency” with Vivek Ramaswamy. That will likely mean Musk will be around at the White House, possibly sharing space with Melania.
Not much is known about Melania and Elon’s relationship. But speaking to PageSix, a source claimed they are getting along well.
“Melania likes Elon,” the source said, adding that she has “been around more.”
While Melania has appeared happy about her husband’s White House return, a body language expert claims she wasn’t pleased when her husband declared himself a winner on Election Day.
Donald and Melania shared a relatively rare moment of public affection when they appeared on stage to meet their voters. The former The Apprentice star turned to Melania, smiled, and said, “Come here, honey,” as per the Mirror.
Body language expert said Melania showed “no emotion” on Election Day
The two shared a big hug and exchanged a kiss. While many saw it as a beautiful moment, one body language expert was not convinced. Darren Stanton stated that Melania was reluctant to walk to her husband on stage, claiming there was “no closeness.”
“When Trump looks back at Melania and gestures to her to come over for a hug, she reluctantly comes forward,” Stanton said on behalf of Spin Genie.
“It’s very disjointed and awkward, and there’s no emotion from her. We don’t see any genuine smiles from Melania, it feels like a smile she has adopted for the occasion.”
Stanton continued: “There’s not the level of emotion you’d expect given her husband has just been elected president. It’s all quite contrived, she’s just reluctant to show any emotion, there’s no real happiness or joy. There’s always an awkwardness with Melania.”
The former and future First Lady has been absent from her husband’s presidential campaign, but that’s not to say she hasn’t been busy herself. Melania released her self-titled memoir, Melania, earlier this year, writing, among other things, about the horrific assassination attempt on her husband. In doing so, Melania said she feared for her son Barron’s life.

“When I watched that violent bullet strike my husband, Donald, I realized my life, and Barron’s life was on the brink of devastating change. I am grateful to the brave secret service agents and law enforcement officials who risked their own lives to protect my husband,” Melania wrote, as per CNN.
“To the families of the innocent victims who are now suffering from this heinous act, I humbly offer my sincerest sympathy. Your need to summon your inner strength for such a terrible reason saddens me.”
Melania continued: “A monster who recognized my husband as an inhuman political machine attempted to ring out Donald’s passion – his laughter, ingenuity, love of music, and inspiration. The core facets of my husband’s life – his human side – were buried below the political machine. Donald, the generous and caring man who I have been with through the best of times and the worst of times.”
