Donald #TRUMP vs #ElonMusk Part 2: Tech Billionaire Restarts Argument; Calls 'Big Beautiful Bill' Utterly Insane
🔥 The rivalry between Donald Trump and Elon Musk has flared up again. Musk reignited his criticism of Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill", calling it “utterly insane and destructive.” He warns the Senate draft bill could destroy millions of jobs and severely harm the country’s economy, sending shockwaves through Washington.
💥 Inside the 'Big Beautiful Bill'
Trump’s flagship bill aims to reshape the U.S. economy with:
Permanent tax cuts for individuals and corporations 💸
Deep cuts to Medicaid and nutrition assistance for low-income Americans 🏥
Increased military spending and tighter border controls 🛡️
The Senate version tries to ease tensions by directing funds to rural hospitals, but the bill remains polarizing even within the Republican Party.
💡 Why Musk Opposes It
Musk’s objections are based on:
Cuts to welfare programs which undermine human capital 🧠
Massive deficit increase due to tax cuts and military spending 💣
Risk of weakened U.S. competitiveness against China 🇨🇳
🚨 Their Tense History
Musk has clashed with Trump before. He called the bill a “disgusting abomination,” prompting Trump to call Musk “crazy.” The two have had a transactional relationship, particularly when Musk helped Trump’s 2024 re-election with cost-cutting government reforms. Yet, their differences—especially on populism vs. technocracy—have caused tensions.
🛠️ End of the Alliance
Musk, now shifting to a non-partisan technocratic approach, seems to be pulling away from Trump. As the bill nears a July 4 vote, the fight symbolizes a deeper rift in American conservatism between nationalism and technological innovation.
⚖️ What’s Next?
The bill may pass soon, but Musk’s vocal opposition could sway public opinion and complicate the final vote. The fallout reveals a growing divide on America’s future path.
