WASHINGTON DC: Questions surrounding the departure from the Trump White House of billionaire Elon Musk and his black eye have now been answered.

An anonymous White House source briefed The Bug’s Washington DC bureau and described the weekend Oval Office news conference with Musk and US President Donald Trump as “a master class in lying” by the two men.

“The fact is that Elon did not decide voluntarily to abandon his work cutting government spending through his Department of Government Efficiency,” the source revealed.

“His tenure was terminated by the President himself after Elon was overheard making a remark that the President found personally insulting.

“It happened just before a cabinet meeting when Elon was sitting next to Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Junior.

“They were sitting in silence but concentrating very hard, trying out an idea of Kennedy’s to attempt to have their respective brain worms communicate with each other.

“That didn’t work, so Kennedy broke the silence by asking Elon if any Tesla vehicle might be capable of carrying the severed head of a dead whale and Elon assured him that any of them could.

“Kennedy then asked if President Trump had yet taken delivery of the red Tesla he promised to buy when he did that promotion in the White House driveway with Elon to boost Tesla’s stock price. (below)

“Elon didn’t know that the President had entered the room and was standing behind him and Kennedy when Elon said the red Tesla hadn’t been delivered yet because he was still personally overseeing its assembly and he wanted it to have a special tachometer.

“The President who knows fuckall about how anything works, despite being a stable genius, misunderstood the comment and angrily fired Elon on the spot.”

The White House source said the subsequent Oval Office news conference announcing Musk’s departure saw him and the President “lie through their teeth” about the reason for Musk’s departure.

“Elon was actually quite upset about being sacked and had taken some, shall we say, pharmaceutical comfort the night before,” the source said.

“He took so much ecstasy that he fell on his face the night before the news conference, causing a black eye.

“Naturally he was asked the next day in the Oval Office what had caused his black eye and he actually began to tell the truth.

“But all he got out was ‘ecs…’ before rapidly deciding not to divulge the truth, so he was able to change tack on the spot and blame it on his kid X.

“It was a masterclass by both men. Elon actually got away with his lies and of course it goes without saying that the President did too,” the source said.
