... "No, he's not going to be president, that I can tell you," Trump said. ...
Taking a step back here...
That Pres-elect Trump even feels he needs to make such a statement is telling of his weakness.
Donald Trump Responds to 'President Musk' Talk Growing (December 20, 2024)

... President-elect Donald Trump's team has dismissed criticism regarding the influence of billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk amid spending bill negotiations.
Karoline Leavitt, Trump's incoming White House press secretary, told Business Insider: "As soon as President Trump released his official stance on the CR [continuing resolution], Republicans on Capitol Hill echoed his point of view. President Trump is the leader of the Republican Party. Full stop." ...
Except, the Republicans didn't echo is view. They voted against him.
That aside, and getting back the the Pres Musk aspect ...
Two days ago, the Trump team seemed to be concerned about the influence of Mr Musk.
imo, interesting times are ahead.

And, if I may say, it is also interesting that my search engine of choice seems to know that the "Lewzer" appellation in your comment refers to Pres-elect Trump.

Lyrics excerpt ...
...
Take your seat in the table
Watch the cabaret fill
Ted came down for the singer
He saw the name on the bill
How the minutes were draggin', as the audience grew
Ted was growing impatient, as he swallowed his brew
"It's time to welcome the artist", he heard somebody say
Saw a face in the floodlight and ev'rything was ok....
Singer man, do your work
Sing your song
Make it hurt
Sing the tears
Sing the pain
Make it all so real
Then the singer was singing all his serious songs
And his band was a-playing;
Ted was hummin' along
Meanwhile back in a corner
There was a table for two
Where sat the singer's cute lover
And she was drinkin' a few
All snuggled up with a stranger
Who had his hand on her thigh
She was receivin' his message
And gazing into his eyes...
See upcoming pop shows
Get tickets for your favorite artists
Make it hurt
Sing the tears
Sing the pain
Make it all so real
So the sound came a-rollin'
Tumblin' into the night
And all the people were ravin'
Saying, "Man our singer's alright!"
And "Such a burnin' performer!"
"What a fabulous show!"
Little lover was stirrin'
She was ready to go
And while the singer was wailing she got up to depart
The crowd was stompin' and cheering
She was breakin' his heart...
