The White House has spurned an offer by President Donald Trump’s former “first buddy” to pay the wages of TSA staff working for free during the partial government shutdown.
Billionaire Elon Musk made the generous offer in a post on his social media platform X on Saturday, noting that delays due to reduced TSA staffing were “negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country.” The post has been viewed over 90 million times.
Trump, 79, was all for the gesture, telling reporters on Monday, “I’d love it. I think it’s great. Let him do that.”
