A crack between Donald Trump and Elon Musk suddenly exploded on Thursday’s Republican tax and spending bills, a series of large, beautiful, cruel tweets on the social media platform they owned.
Musk resigned a few days after he resigned as head of the Trump administration’s Department of Efficiency (DOGE) and then publicly criticized a massive Republican beauty bill, a dispute between the tech boss and the U.S. president broke out in an open war with the U.S. president using their respective online megaphones.
“I don’t mind Elon is against me, but he should have done that a few months ago,” President Trump once told the truth to his stubborn supporters. Not long after, Trump claimed in another tweet that Musk was “skinny and I want him to leave” before adding “He was just going crazy.”
Meanwhile, Musk released a series of positions to his 220 million followers from his own digital bass, which soon sparked his open dispute with Trump, seemingly trapped in a reciprocal battle.
An X tweet claimed there was no evidence that Trump's name was in the government archives about the late billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, which is why they were not released. "Have a great day, DJT!!" added Tesla, SpaceX and Starlink CEOs.
Their digital threats and insults show no signs of relaxation with the day of life. Musk claims Trump would lose the 2024 U.S. presidential election without his campaign financial donations. He wrote on X: "This dissatisfaction."
Last year, tech giants donated about $300 million to Trump's campaign and Republican candidates. Trump retorted that cutting government spending, as Musk asked, could include "termination of Elon's government subsidies and contracts."
The potential deadly threat to Tesla and other Musk businesses is largely dependent on government contracts, so the tech boss threatens to retire his SpaceX Dragon Spacecraft, built through the Department of Defense through the Department of Defense for potential use of NASA in space.
As their post continues, Musk on X said Trump should be impeached and replaced by Vice President JD Vance. By late Thursday afternoon, Trump took unusually proposed steps with rally media as he held an event with the White House fraternity police order.
Since launching Truth Society and its parent company, Trump Media and Technology Group, social media platforms have become the main social media platform for the U.S. president.
In March, Musk used his artificial intelligence company Xai to acquire X in an all-share deal that valued XAI at $80 billion and X at $33 billion ($45 billion, his original privilege price was $45 billion and his debt was reduced by $12 billion). That's $1 billion higher than the $44 billion investment enterprise price that Musk and investors paid on a platform called Twitter in 2022.
