This clip of Elon Musk cracking up at memes while Trump ignores him went wildly viral – 17 funniest and deeply relatable responses
While his vice president elect JD Vance has been conspicuous only by his absence since Donald Trump’s election win, Elon Musk has been doing a passable impression of a staticy sock. He just won’t leave Trump’s side.
This latest clip of the two of them together proved particularly memorable, Musk apparently cracking up looking at something on his phone while Trump preferred to concentrate on UFC fight in New York’s Madison Square Garden, by all accounts.
And if Musk was trying to get his new best friend’s attention – or get him to look at his Twitter feed or whatever he was looking at – it didn’t end well.

You ever go on a boys trip/vacation and your best friend brings a guy from work who sucks ass and you hate him and youve said maybe 10 words to him but your spirit has marked his spirit as an enemy and you can’t do anything about it and he’s trying to show you shit on his phone. https://t.co/fzVSos0swF

The most relatable video of Trump I’ve ever seen. You’re next to some weirdo who doesn’t have any social skills who’s clearly trying to get your attention by overreacting to something. You pray to god that the moment passes and do everything you can to just ignore. https://t.co/Fsm4Xlhk1w
