Will Trump retaliate against Musk? He may no longer have the leverage.
Musk's strike was too precise,
bringing Trump's most taboo 'Epstein black history' to light.
This isn't just a normal war of words; it's a direct hit.
The question is: Can Trump retaliate?
He doesn't have much room to maneuver against Musk.
- Twitter? It's no longer his territory; X belongs to Musk.
- Public opinion? The Republican Party is divided, making it harder to make an impact.
- Legal action? Musk didn't specify any details, so it doesn't constitute defamation.
- Stock market? Too many losses; he's been dragged down as well.
All he can do is 'handle it coldly' and negotiate privately;
the real 'retaliation' may never come.
