Wait, did Donald Trump just expose Elon Musk for taking the fat shot drug?
Get the Full StoryPresident Trump has some thoughts on Ozempic and maybe some for Elon Musk too? Trump s lifelong commitment to turning everything into a TV bit has made the line between the presidential press conferences and Bravo razor thin. While announcing a plan to lower drug prices by 59 to 90 , Trump chose a rather mocking, deranged way to do it. What he lacks in a moral compass, he makes up for in pure reality-TV gold. And the best part is, when he s in this mode, no one not even his friends is safe. While discussing the price of what is likely Ozempic, which he, of course, calls the fat shot, Trump shared an anecdote about a friend. A friend of mine, who is a businessman. Very, very, very top guy. Most of you must have heard of him, Trump began. Highly neurotic. Brilliant businessman. Seriously overweight. And he takes the fat shot drug. Trump on Ozempic: A friend of mine who is a businessman Most of you would've heard of him. Highly neurotic. Brilliant businessman. Seriously overweight. And he takes the fat shot drug I said it s not working. No freaking way. pic.twitter.com d06YoLShNH johnny maga _johnnymaga May 12, 2025 He then launched into one of his signature one-man plays switching voices like he s auditioning for Saturday Night Live. Trump claimed this very powerful, very neurotic, very overweight man called him and said, President, can I ask you a question? I m in London and I just paid for this damn fat drug I take. Trump, never one to miss a roast opportunity, deadpanned, I said it s not working. Yes. The man who once stared into a solar eclipse just publicly called someone fat while trying to fix America s drug pricing crisis. Welcome to 2025. Now, the actual point Trump was trying to make somewhere in there is that semaglutide costs 88 in the UK but a whopping 1,300 in New York. Which is, frankly, wild. But the only thing anyone online could focus on was: Who was he talking about? Chris Christie was ruled out immediately because Trump said it was a friend. And no one believes Trump and Christie are trading warm-hearted phone calls across the pond. So the internet quickly settled on Elon Musk, because honestly, who else fits very rich, brilliant, and neurotic? Then there is also the fact that the billionaire admitted on social media that he was taking Ozempic to lose weight. One user on X formerly Twitter, formerly tolerable couldn t even focus on Trump s expos and was just fixated on how messed up the healthcare system is. Trump exposing elon for taking ozempic and also how fucked up the healthcare system in the us is omfg we live in a spoof movie of reality https: t.co upYahow3lf Morsa m4rtianmanchild May 12, 2025 Another user was too busy laughing at Trump s mean girl impression. Trump saying that ozempic stuff about Elon is so funny. Mean girl at the end of her rope type tactic. You re actually really pretty, never mind what everyone says kind of move regan unclehaver May 12, 2025 The Trump-Musk friendship, if you can call it that, has more ups and downs than J.Lo and Ben Affleck. One week, they re shading each other online; the next, Musk is cutting Trump a 291 million check for campaigns so he can get regulators off his back, per Rolling Stone. That s not friendship. That s power-lunch trauma bonding and now they re stuck together. Still, it s worth remembering the wise words of philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche: In times of peace, a warlike man attacks himself. And in Trump and Musk s case, they ve already won the election together all that s left is turning on each other. And when the day comes that they finally, publicly fall out, it won t be subtle. No sir. It ll be televised. Or worse, live-streamed on X.
