#TrumpVsMusk Preconditions
On May 28, Elon Musk criticized Donald Trump's large-scale bill "One Big Beautiful Bill" aimed at reducing government spending. He stated that the initiative undermines the work done by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
On May 29, Musk left his position as head of DOGE. The next day, Trump presented him with a "golden key" to the White House and expressed gratitude for his work in the government. During a press conference, the politicians praised each other.
On May 31, another event occurred that was negatively received by Elon Musk. On that day, the U.S. President withdrew the nomination of billionaire Jared Isaacman for the position of head of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Isaacman is one of the sponsors of Musk's space projects. In particular, he was the commander of the SpaceX Inspiration4 missions in 2021 and Polaris Dawn on the Crew Dragon spacecraft in 2024.
On June 3, the billionaire returned to criticizing Trump's tax and budget bill. According to him, the initiative will increase the U.S. budget deficit and "burden American citizens with an unbearable debt."
