⚔️ Public Clash between Trump and Musk (June 5, 2025)

🏛 The Origin of the Conflict

The altercation began when Elon Musk criticized a controversial spending proposal backed by Trump, known as the “Big Beautiful Bill.” Musk described it as a “repugnant abomination,” warning of its negative impact on the economy and pointing out that it cut benefits to electric cars.

🧨 Musk Demands Impeachment

Elon went a step further by publicly supporting the idea of impeachment against Trump, linking him to alleged omissions regarding documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. Moreover, he claimed that Trump turned against these policies to protect interests, downplaying the role of electric vehicles in his agenda.

🎯 Trump's Harsh Response

In retaliation, Trump threatened to withdraw subsidies and federal contracts from Musk’s companies — such as Tesla and SpaceX — accusing him of being a traitor and ungrateful. He directly held Musk responsible for the drop in incentives for clean energy.

📉 Market Impact

Tesla's shares fell by approximately 14%, wiping out nearly 150 billion in market value. Meanwhile, competitors of SpaceX began to gain ground.

🔄 Attempt to De-escalate

Although a call between the two was on the agenda, Trump expressed later doubts about conversing. For his part, Musk indicated he was open to easing the conflict, but only if real political changes were addressed.
