Underlying Reasons
The disagreement began when Musk publicly criticized Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill," a major legislative initiative. Musk described the bill as a "disgusting disaster" that could lead to serious inflation in the national deficit. In response, Trump threatened to cancel billions of dollars in government subsidies and contracts for Musk's companies, including SpaceX.
