#TrumpVsMusk
In June 2025, Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s alliance collapsed over disagreements on Trump’s tax and spending bill, which Musk criticized for increasing the deficit. Trump threatened to cut Musk’s companies (Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink) off from government contracts, while Musk baselessly linked Trump to Epstein’s files and endorsed posts calling for Trump’s impeachment. The feud, marked by public insults on Truth Social and X, led to a 14% drop in Tesla’s stock. The conflict highlights their clashing egos and could impact Republican policy and Musk’s businesses.
