WASHINGTON—In the end, all it took to oust Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, whom President Trump appointed in his first term, was a nudge from Elon Musk.
During a Friday meeting last month at Trump’s Bedminster, N.J., club, Musk complained to the president that DeJoy was resisting his cost-cutting efforts at the U.S. Postal Service, according to people briefed on the conversation.
Trump had grown annoyed with DeJoy already, and wanted the postal service private and profitable, so he planned to fire him the following week, the people said. By Monday, DeJoy announced his resignation, effective immediately.
