#TrumpVsMusk
Last week things got real messy between Trump and Musk — not just talk, but actual moves with market consequences.
Trump’s big “One Big Beautiful Bill” finally passed — massive spending, massive tax cuts. Musk didn’t hold back, called it a “disgusting abomination” and said this kind of nonsense is exactly why he wants to launch a new political party - the “America Party”. Man even ran a poll on the 4th of July asking if people want a third party.
Then Trump fired back, warning he might recheck all federal deals with Musk’s companies. That includes Tesla, Starlink, even SpaceX. Boom - Tesla stock drops around 7% in two days. That’s billions gone.
On top of that, Tesla’s Q2 delivery numbers were weak again -second quarter in a row. They’re down 13.5%, and investors are clearly getting spooked.
Oh, and Trump’s 90-day pause on trade tariffs? That ends July 9. Word is he’s planning to raise tariffs as high as 70% in August. That’s going to hit global markets hard — and Tesla ain’t ready for that kind of storm right now.
Bottom line — this Trump vs Musk drama ain’t just Twitter beef anymore. It’s starting to shake actual investor confidence, real stock prices, and global trade talk.
Keep watching. This might get way uglier before it gets better.
