As political authority and technology capital collide head-on, a "super confrontation" that affects market confidence, federal policies, and even the flow of crypto assets is quietly escalating.


The White House is no longer peaceful. The public dispute between Trump and Musk is tearing apart the delicate balance between American politics and business—and the logic behind this conflict is far more than just a “personality incompatibility.”


In early June, at a White House press conference that was widely reported by the global media, US President Donald Trump rarely responded directly to the tensions with Tesla CEO Elon Musk. He said that although he was dissatisfied with Musk's recent fierce attacks on his tax reform bill, he "would not give up Tesla or shut down Starlink," and added a meaningful sentence, "I think if I were him, I would want to talk to me."


This sentence is both a threat and a crack in the door.


"I saved his life": Trump's political counterattack and policy implications


The conflict was sparked by Musk's public criticism of Trump's new tax law on the social platform X (formerly Twitter), calling it "disgusting," especially the reduction in the tax credit for electric vehicles, which is a direct blow to Tesla's revenue. According to JPMorgan Chase, this change is expected to reduce Tesla's profits by about $1.2 billion in 2025.


Musk not only publicly warned that the bill would trigger a national debt crisis, he also lobbied Congress to reject the bill and took the opportunity to promote his "fiscal rationality" economic views.


Trump chose to fight back in a high-profile manner. He threatened to terminate all federal contracts with Musk's companies such as SpaceX, Tesla, and Starlink, and even questioned whether Musk had "taken ketamine" while serving as a government contractor.


What really pushed the conflict to the extreme was the post that Musk later deleted but was screenshot and circulated: accusing Trump's name of appearing in Epstein's secret files.


Tesla's stock price plummets, and the relationship between technology and politics enters a freezing period


This move directly impacted Tesla's market sentiment. After the news came out, TSLA's stock price fell by nearly 6% during the intraday trading session, and investor sentiment fell sharply. At the same time, the crypto asset market also saw unusual movements. Musk's influence on X caused the prices of "Musk-related" assets such as Dogecoin and SHIB to fluctuate significantly.


What investors are most worried about is not this war of words, but the "policy risks" behind it that are surfacing.


Mlion.ai's recent on-chain AI public opinion tracking shows that the popularity of the keyword "Musk + Tesla government contract" increased by 197% within 48 hours, and there was a linkage with the terms related to "government sanctions" and "risk reassessment". This signal is very likely to reflect the direction of fine-tuning institutional trading strategies in advance.


In the news sentiment analysis section of Mlion.ai, the proportion of "negative" information related to Musk exceeded 63%, the highest in the past six months.



It is worth noting that although Trump made a verbal statement, he still did not explicitly state that he would immediately terminate all cooperation with Musk's companies. In an interview with NBC, he vaguely said: "I can do that, but I haven't thought about it yet." This is both a warning to Musk and a comfort to the capital market.


Currently, Starlink is still operating inside the White House, and Trump’s Tesla is still parked in the White House parking lot.


This has led many people to speculate that Musk might make some degree of "soft compromise" - after all, government contracts, rocket launches, Starlink deployment and other projects are closely related.


If you are an investor, you should be more concerned about whether Musk is losing his federal protection and how this will affect technology stocks and market structure.


On Mlion.ai’s data dashboard, we can clearly track the impact of such “event shocks” on the flow of funds in the sector - for example, technology assets, government procurement concept stocks, and even satellite communication projects related to Starlink have fluctuated in the short term.


By utilizing Mlion.ai's AI strategy diagram function, investors can also automatically generate strategy maps based on public opinion nodes and technical positions, and combine them with potential "policy change" signals to make trading arrangements more scientific.


It's not just a dispute, it's also a weathervane about the boundaries of power


Over the past 20 years, the relationship between American politics and business has been constantly reshaped by the friction between the "Godfather of Silicon Valley" and "traditional power". The conflict between Trump and Musk is the tension that is bound to arise after the rise of technology capital.


The current market is not lacking in emotions, but rather in effective data judgment tools - and Mlion.ai is providing such a pair of "AI eyes" that can detect subtle changes.


Conclusion


The dispute between Trump and Musk is not only a head-on clash between two strong personalities, but also a power tug-of-war between the old and new capital orders.


The fate of Tesla, the fate of Starlink, and even Musk’s layout in the fields of Web3 and AI may all be greatly affected by this White House turmoil. These potential impacts will also leave traces in the market through data, capital flows, and emotions.


Through Mlion.ai, early insight into these trends and logic "beneath the surface" may be the most valuable intelligent weapon in the current market game.
