My money is on TACO unless Trump tries to revoke Musks citizenship.
I think the first actual act that Trump would take, if this going to move beyond words into actual deeds, would be to start firing some of Musk's DOGEmen. Because DOGE couldn't operate as a real agency (else its head would be an Officer of the U.S. that required Senate confirmation), the way it worked was by "embedding" DOGE people into the various agencies as employees of that agency. Basically just a whole bunch of people that were there because Musk wanted them high in the food chain in each agency, not because the putative heads of each agency want them to be there.
Trump values loyalty above all. These people are Musk allies. If Trump has decided that this is not just a war of words, but an actual break that has converted the two men into opponents, then they're going to have to go.
Au revoir, Big Balls....
