Little Marco had all he could take from Musk.

This should be a free NYT article here:

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/us/politics/tru...

snippet:

Mr. Rubio had been privately furious with Mr. Musk for weeks, ever since his team effectively shuttered an entire agency that was supposedly under Mr. Rubio’s control: the United States Agency for International Development. But, in the extraordinary cabinet meeting on Thursday in front of President Trump and around 20 others — details of which have not been reported before — Mr. Rubio got his grievances off his chest.
....
After the argument dragged on for an uncomfortable time, Mr. Trump finally intervened to defend Mr. Rubio as doing a “great job.” Mr. Rubio has a lot to deal with, the president said. He is very busy, he is always traveling and on TV, and he has an agency to run. So everyone just needs to work together.

Ah, Trump put Musk down. Could this be a sign the honeymoon is over?

The Cheeto reminds me of Marty Frankel. Marty was a real curious case, a lousy investor, but one who, IIRC, bilked the float out of some small insurance companies he bought, and (illegally of course) used the loot to fund a crazy lifestyle. He surrounded himself with boot-lickers. In his case, young women who he kept all in his lavish house, and they were all competing for his favor. It fell apart, of course.

I expect Rubio will be running for his old Senate seat in the next election.

trump knows few others have direct access to the type wealth he wants a cut of.

rubio is disposable at any level of groveling.
