Donald Trump is thinking about selling his Tesla car amid his public row with the company's chief Elon Musk, the BBC's US partner CBS reports

The White House tells the BBC Trump does not intend to talk to the tech billionaire today, despite earlier reports they might have a phone call

Trump has spoken to several US media outlets, calling Musk "the man who has lost his mind"

Musk has only commented briefly, replying "exactly" to a post that says he has only criticised Congress, while Trump has attacked him personally

The rift between the president and his former adviser erupted into the open on Thursday, with Trump saying he was "disappointed" by Musk's criticisms of his spending bill

Musk then accused Trump of "ingratitude", saying: "Without me, Trump would have lost the election" - here's how the spat unfolded

Musk's companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, have contracts with the US government
