'He's not living in reality': Fox News reports GOP lawmakers lashing out at Trump and Musk

X owner Elon Musk earlier this week killed a bipartisan deal to keep the federal government open, and even many Republicans are reportedly not happy about it.

Writing on X, Fox News reporter Liz Elkind reveals that there is "a LOT of frustration at Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy from rank-and-file House Rs this morning" after the two men publicly killed the bipartisan deal.

"I'll have nothing to do with them after watching them publicly trash the speaker," said one, while another Republican lawmaker accused them of "freelancing and shooting off the hip" to kill the bill without understanding key provisions that they had criticized.

What's more, one unnamed House Republican even expressed frustration with President-elect Donald Trump for going along with Musk.

"Trump doesn’t understand Congress," this member said. "He wants all GOP wins and no concessions to Dems. The Senate and WH are still run by Dems. He’s not living in reality."

Musk has said that the government should simply shut down for the next month until the day Trump is inaugurated for his second term on January 20th.

Trump, for his part, has said that he's willing to accept a shutdown but is trying to shift the blame for it to outgoing President Joe Biden.
