(Warroom)—Steve Bannon delivered a fiery takedown of Elon Musk during a Thursday WarRoom broadcast, accusing the billionaire of betraying President Trump, MAGA, and ultimately the American people. According to Bannon, Musk used his privileged access to the White House and MAGA’s political capital for personal gain—only to turn on Trump when his demands weren’t met. Bannon’s warning is not just about one man, but a pattern among self-interested elites who masquerade as allies while endangering the constitutional Republic.
Steve Bannon didn’t hold back as he leveled sharp criticism at Elon Musk, framing him as the ultimate political opportunist who betrayed the very movement that once gave him unprecedented influence. “President Trump empowered him more than anyone has ever been empowered in this government,” Bannon emphasized. “He had resources, access, support—Trump had his back.”
At the heart of Bannon’s frustration is Musk’s alleged disloyalty. After being welcomed into the Trump inner circle and even praised during politically heated moments, Musk—according to Bannon—turned his back on the president in a very public and harmful way. “This wasn’t just incompetence,” Bannon said, “this was betrayal.”
Bannon traced the arc of Musk’s relationship with Trump, beginning with promises to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse in federal spending. “He told the President, ‘I’m gonna find the country dollars in cuts this year,’” Bannon said. “And the President said, ‘Fine.’” Despite that trust, Musk failed to deliver results and instead pursued “performance art all over town… for yourself, your chainsaw, and your wraparound sunglasses.”
