#特朗普马斯克分歧 The differences between Trump and Musk mainly revolve around policy ideas and interest demands. The core trigger of the conflict is the "Big and Beautiful Act" proposed by the Trump administration, which Musk criticized as "robbing the poor to pay the rich" and increasing debt, leading him to publicly oppose it. Musk retweeted Trump's old tweets from 2012 and 2013 criticizing the Republican Party for raising the debt ceiling, mocking his current policy, which directly provoked a strong backlash from Trump.

Trump accused Musk of turning against him due to the withdrawal of electric vehicle subsidies, claiming he has "gone crazy," and threatened to cut Tesla's government subsidies and contracts, resulting in Tesla's market value evaporating by more than $150 billion in a single day. Musk countered by stating that the bill was never shown to him and was rushed through late at night, questioning the transparency of the policy. Furthermore, Trump also mentioned that Musk had previously recommended a Democrat to run NASA, implying that the conflict between the two had long been brewing.
