Supposing that to be true, what's the problem?
For someone who allegedly hires only the best people, he sure kicks them to the curb quickly.
Isn't he the boss, and very adamant as to what needs to be done?

Except when he's not.
But I don't think that is what's going on here. Did Trump lead Musk to believe he should have an office there? Or did Musk assume it?
I'm not privy to their private conversations, but it certainly seems like expectations changed suddenly.
Why the title that Musk was kicked out, when the post only said he was denied an office there?
The title doesn't imply that he used to have an office there. Sounds like Trump got tired of Musk hanging out in the West Wing.

Oh, then Democrats should be encouraged, they were complaining that Musk had too much influence on Trump.
I guess we can scrap that talking point

Unless this whole thing was set up to make it look that way.

Wanna bet - once certain ones begin a narrative, they hold onto it, regardless of reality.

Conflict of Interest;

A conflict of interest occurs when a person's or entity's vested interests raise a question of whether their actions, judgment, and/or decision-making can be unbiased.
Not sure why a non government advisor would need a office in the White house anyway. With that said there are so many conflict of interest red flags when the person who holds the largest government contracts is advising the government how and where money should or shouldn't be spent. To have so many running around the executive branch who could not pass a security clearance should be troubling to everyone.

Hey, it's OK to steal classified documents now, so who needs security clearance!

As long as they store them in their garage and court cardboard boxes next to their Corvette. Remember, they need a easy access for their drug addict son.

Far less concerning as juxtaposed to the current admin.

In some eyes I’m sure it is. He is still better than the Best the left had to offer.
No, he's not. I understand he won, but no, he's not.
Reality is those ally nations know who they're dealing with and our intel sharing abilities are now something they have to think about.
I mean the first time Trump was president they were reluctant to share intel. If one of our Five Eyes intel sharing countries had intel critical of Putin, would they share it with Trump? He already made Israel scramble and remove assets from Russia because Trump divulged secrets right to Russians. They seen the Mar A Largo bathroom. They know Trump has loose lips.

Trump and Musk are on the splits because Elon did the Nazi salute too soon. "What did I tell you about timing?!" Trump yelled at Musk according to an anonymous source. <satire>

No, he's not. I understand he won, but no, he's not.
Yes, he is. The He won the popular vote - the electoral college - every swing state - the House and Senate because people viewed him as better than what the Democrats offered - which according to them, was their best.

Foreign leaders so not care for him because he speaks from a position of power and America first - with Joe, they could do pretty much what they wanted, but not so with Trump.

Need an example - look at what happened with deporting the criminals back to Columbia. The Columbian Government turned the plane around in mid air - saying they did not want their criminals back. Trump - from the golf course lets them know that he is imposing tariff's and closing the VISA's until they do. Less than 24 hours - the President of Columbia is sending his plane to get the criminals.

Yes, foreign leadership hates it - too bad.

I said I understood he won. What I said is he was not the better choice. Let me clean up your "Colombia" story. The president of Colombia did not send his plane to the US to pick up prisoner. That plane went to Honduras to pick up deportees from there. Trump placed tariffs on Colombia, Colombia retaliated and pledged to place tariffs on us. Here's the thing, it's just more Trump chaos. There is no win here. There is no Colombia shaking in their boots. The bottom line here is the Trump admin is sending deportees back to Colombia; just like every admin has done for eons. There were 475 flights from the US sending deportees back to Colombia between 2020 and 2024 alone. This was just a nonsensical brouhaha.

Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro buckles under Trump’s trade war threat — offers presidential plane for deportation flights


Colombian President Gustavo Petro quickly reversed course about accepting flights of deported migrants from the US after President Trump threatened emergency tariffs of up to 50% on the South American country for refusing to cooperate.
Petro not only acquiesced to Trump’s demands, he even offered up the official Colombian presidential plane to help shuttle migrants back to the country, calling it a response to “the Government’s commitment to guarantee decent conditions.”​
“The Government of Colombia, under the direction of President Gustavo Petro, has arranged the presidential plane to facilitate the dignified return of the compatriots who were going to arrive in the country today in the morning, coming from deportation flights,”
