Never heard of the guy until now; looks like another Trump "advisor" who needs to get booted.
From Malta With Lies: Sergio Gor and the Sabotage of the Trump-Musk AllianceMost Americans have never heard of Sergio Gor. But in Trump’s second term, he sits closer to the engine room of power than perhaps anyone not named Trump. As Director of the Presidential Personnel Office (PPO), Gor wields authority over who runs the executive branch. His choices determine whether Trump’s directives are implemented or buried under bureaucratic inertia. And everyone who receives an appointment ends up owing him. It is like collecting 5,000 favors from the most powerful people in Washington, a vast network of leverage and control. President Trump trusts him implicitly, as does Don Jr. and much of the family. In my opinion that trust is misplaced.
From the very beginning, Sergio Gor made it his mission to sabotage Elon Musk, not out of principle, but out of envy and insecurity. Gor, a professional flatterer with a checkered past and thin resume, saw in Musk a threat to his own relevance. Elon had intellect, influence, and independence. He didn’t defer to Gor’s petty power games. And in Washington, there is no greater sin. If Gor had been less driven by ego and imposter syndrome, he might have recognized Musk for what he truly was, the most powerful weapon in President Trump’s arsenal. A once-in-a-generation ally who could modernize the federal government and win over a new generation of voters. Instead, Gor let his personal insecurities take precedence over the president’s success. He didn’t just sabotage Elon, he sabotaged the president himself. And while I do not doubt Gor’s personal loyalty to Trump, his actions show a shocking lack of foresight. He could have helped Elon succeed. Instead, he helped him fail.
So, potentially, an envious dumbass.
Not surprising. I thought the whole Trump-Musk split was odd, and something wasn't right. Maybe someone will point it out to them both, and this guy will be demoted to a less influencial position. Or "You're fired!"
