MUSK: THE REAL PRESIDENT IS WHOEVER CONTROLS THE TELEPROMPTER

Tesla CEO Elon Musk hit out at President Joe Biden on Monday, calling his administration ineffectual while comparing him to Will Ferrell’s character Ron Burgundy in “Anchorman.”

Musk, who indicated he may pull out of his $44 billion takeover of Twitter, also said that if Biden doesn’t address the spiraling rate of inflation, the United States is at risk of ending up like Venezuela.

“The real president is whoever controls the teleprompter,” Musk told a podcast on Monday during the All-In Summit. “The path to power is the path to the teleprompter.”

He added: “I do feel like if somebody were to accidentally lean on the teleprompter, it’s going to be like ‘Anchorman.’”

The plot of “Anchorman” revolves around the protagonist, Burgundy, a television news anchor who will read anything that is put on a teleprompter, even at the risk of destroying his career.

Musk, who said he has repeatedly voted for Democrats, criticized the Biden administration for not getting things done.

“This administration doesn’t seem to get a lot done,” Musk said.
