Former Trump advisor says Musk is an ‘illegal alien’ who the president should ‘deport immediately’
Steve Bannon has called for Donald Trump to deport “illegal alien” Elon Musk and seize SpaceX with immediate effect.
The former senior Trump advisor, who previously rallied for a “MAGA civil war” against Musk, shared his two cents on a solution for the abrupt breakup between the two billionaires after their very public clashover the president’s “big, beautiful bill.”
Speaking on his War Room podcast Thursday evening, Bannon fumed over the tech billionaire’s threat to decommission its Dragon spacecraft “immediately” after the president mulled canceling billions of dollars of government subsidies to Musk’s companies.
“President Trump, tonight, should sign an executive order calling for the Defense Production Act,” Bannon said, referring to the Cold War-era law that gives presidents emergency authority to control domestic industries.
“And seize SpaceX tonight, before midnight,” he added.
