Some GOP lawmakers are quietly hoping Elon Musk will soon be out of the spotlight over fears that he’s damaging the party’s electoral chances, according to Politico.
As voters cast their ballots in crucial races in Wisconsin and Florida Tuesday, one House Republican even told the outlet that an “April 1st massacre” would be “a beautiful thing” because it would alert their congressional colleagues to the damage Musk is causing.
In Florida, one special election is being held to replace former Rep. Mike Waltz—who stepped down from the seat to become Trump’s national security adviser and had an unfortunate starring role in Signalgate—while another will be held to fill the vacancy left by Matt Gaetz, Trump’s scandal-scarred first pick for attorney general.
