Trump vs. Musk: an alliance that could not withstand the test of power 🥊
Probably, every second person has already written about the conflict between Donald Trump and Elon Musk. But on the other hand – how can one overlook such a story?
Not long ago they were on the same wavelength: Musk supported Trump's campaign, led the government department for DOGE efficiency, and poured millions into promoting the Republican agenda. And now – an open war.
Musk loudly slammed the door, calling Trump's flagship bill a "disgrace," and left DOGE. In response, Trump lashed out at Tesla and SpaceX, threatening to cut government contracts. The exchange of barbs quickly escalated into a full-blown digital battle on platforms X and Truth Social.
Shares of both sides – down. Politics, technology, ego, and money have intertwined in one of the loudest conflicts of 2025. Musk is already hinting at launching a new political force, and Trump clearly will not forgive the betrayal.
We continue to watch – it seems this is just the beginning.
