Kentucky Senator Rand Paul has sparked controversy by suggesting Elon Musk as a potential candidate for House Speaker. Paul argues that Musk's outsider status and disruption could shake up the political establishment.

Musk has also called for a government shutdown , which is why Paul caused quite a buzz on social media when he suggested having the manchild mogul replace Johnson as House speaker. In a post on X, formerly Twitter, the Kentucky senator noted that the House speaker is not required to be a member of Congress, and basically suggested electing Musk because “nothing would disrupt the swamp more than electing Elon Musk . . . think about it . . . nothing’s impossible.

Marjorie Taylor Greene (R). December 19, 2024 Other people weren’t as enthusiastic about putting Musk, a businessman who wasn’t elected to office, in charge of the House.

He bought the presidency, hand-picked the vice president-elect, and now aims to become the House Speaker. It was only a matter of time before this shitshow of a proposal surfaced. Making Elon Musk Speaker of the House would be like putting The Joker on fucking steroids. A non-elected billionaire with zero government experience and billions in government contracts is a surefire way to…Rand Paul's suggestion of bringing in Elon Musk as House Speaker is completely ludicrous. Just arrant nonsense. Musk is *far* too busy being president-in-waiting. On Jan. 20, Donald Trump will reclaim the most powerful seat in our nation's governmen
