#TrumpVsMusk Elon Musk and Donald Trump, once close allies during Trump’s 2024 campaign, have entered a very public feud in June 2025. Musk criticized Trump’s massive tax and spending bill—labeling it fiscally irresponsible and attacking its cuts to electric‑vehicle incentives—then publicly called for Trump’s impeachment and even hinted at forming a new party . Trump retaliated by calling Musk “crazy,” threatening to withdraw government contracts, and accusing him of “Trump derangement syndrome” . Tesla stock plunged sharply amid the clash. However, both sides appear to be stepping back: Musk paused a takedown of SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft, and reports suggest White House mediation is in motion to de‑escalate tensions . The rift highlights a fracturing alliance between a tech titan and the Republican mainstream.
