The feud between Donald Trump and Elon Musk is heating up. It all started when Musk criticized Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill," a sweeping tax-and-spending package, calling it a "disgusting abomination".¹Musk argued that the bill would worsen the federal deficit and undermine cost-cutting efforts.
Trump fired back, threatening to cancel government contracts with Musk's companies, including SpaceX.²The situation escalated, with Musk accusing Trump of being named in the sealed Jeffrey Epstein files.Trump responded by saying Musk has "lost his mind" and that he's not interested in talking to him.
The feud has already had significant consequences, with Tesla's stock plummeting over 14% and wiping out roughly $150 billion in market value. The situation continues to unfold, with reports of a potential private chat between the two, but Trump has denied any interest in talking to Musk.
