Elon Musk Supports Trump’s Power to Fire Executive Officials, Backing Mike Lee’s Suggestion

Elon Musk has backed the idea that President-elect Donald Trump should have the authority to fire any official in the executive branch, excluding the vice president.

This notion was voiced by Utah Senator Mike Lee, who believes the president should be able to remove any employee at any time for any reason.

The discussion arose amidst reports of Trump's plans to make unconventional personnel changes, including firing officials with fixed terms like the FBI Director and IRS Commissioner, positions that traditionally remain unchanged during transitions.

Experts note that while uncommon, the president holds the legal power to make such changes.
