There’s a feud between Trump and Musk?

Mr_Rightside 4​h ago

For people out of the loop:

President Trump: “You saw a man who was very happy when he stood behind the Oval Desk…Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore. I was surprised.” “He said wonderful things about me…he’s worn the hat, ‘Trump was right about everything,’ and I am right about the Big Beautiful Bill.”

President Trump: “Elon knew the innerworkings of this [Big Beautiful Bill]…he had no problem, all of a sudden he had a problem, only when he found out we’re gonna have to cut the EV mandate.” “He hasn’t said bad about me personally, but I’m sure that’ll be next. I’m very disappointed in Elon.”

Elon Musk: Whatever. Keep the EV/solar incentive cuts in the bill, even though no oil & gas subsidies are touched (very unfair!!), but ditch the MOUNTAIN of DISGUSTING PORK in the bill. In the entire history of civilization, there has never been legislation that both big and beautiful. Everyone knows this! Either you get a big and ugly bill or a slim and beautiful bill. Slim and beautiful is the way.

Elon Musk: False, this bill was never shown to me even once and was passed in the dead of night so fast that almost no one in Congress could even read it!

Elon Musk: Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate.

Elon Musk: Such ingratitude.

Elon Musk: Where is this guy today??

Elon Musk: Where is the man who wrote these words? Was he replaced by a body double!?

Elon Musk retweeted a post from Wall Street Mav: “I fully agree with Elon. I simply hope this doesn’t create long term damage between Elon and Trump.”

President Trump on Truth Social

President Trump: Elon was “wearing thin,” I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!

Elon Musk: Such an obvious lie. So sad.

President Trump: The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts. I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it!

This would both end the International Space Station and simultaneously provide no way to safely deorbit it.

Elon Musk: This just gets better and better 🤣🤣 Go ahead, make my day …

Elon Musk: Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!

Elon Musk: Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.

Elon Musk: In light of the President’s statement about cancellation of my government contracts, @SpaceX will begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft immediately.

President Trump: I don’t mind Elon turning against me, but he should have done so months ago. This is one of the Greatest Bills ever presented to Congress. It’s a Record Cut in Expenses, $1.6 Trillion Dollars, and the Biggest Tax Cut ever given. If this Bill doesn’t pass, there will be a 68% Tax Increase, and things far worse than that. I didn’t create this mess, I’m just here to FIX IT. This puts our Country on a Path of Greatness. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Ian Miles Cheong: President vs Elon. Who wins? My money’s on Elon. Trump should be impeached and JD Vance should replace him.

Elon Musk: Yes

I’m sitting this one out. Fuck EVs, fuck H1Bs, fuck pork barrel omnibus bullshit, fuck Palantir, and fuck congress with a pineapple sideways.

This is just sad. It seems Trump just can’t keep allies because he flies off the fucking handle every time someone questions one of his positions. Most of the time I agree with him but he shouldn’t have gone there with Musk, who has been a tremendous ally to him and spent billions advancing freedom of speech and breaking the legacy media’s grip on the public’s conscience.

Meanwhile FBI and DOJ are doing absolutely fucking NOTHING after Elon put himself and his team and his businesses personally on the line with the DOGE audits… and jack shit has been done about nearly everything they uncovered.

I’m pretty much out of hope after seeing how this admin continues to operate. There’s no better option but this isn’t what we voted for, this is status quo bullshit.

Quite sad of trump to break a friendship because the other person disagrees with him on something.

Sorry to overshare, but i know most people won’t go to that cesspool, and this thread is one of hundreds like it, all of them bringing me joy! All this stuff is getting upvoted! On the donald!

      It’s surprising that cult members have a platform to worship their cult leader? Besides, he gets his own space funded ever since regular twitter (as opposed to the current nazi shitter) kicked him off.

    You didn’t overshare, I’m thankful I don’t have to go. This is fucking hilarious to see. Honestly, I hope they both lose. Elon gets deported and trump starts to see repercussions of that. Elon is tied up with a lot of military complex type shit, this is fun.

    Anyone else noticing the similarities between the new pro-Elon anti-Trump statements and the old pro- Trump anti-Harris statements?

    I’m guessing a lot of this is Elon’s troll farms at work.

      I doubt it’s Elon. I figure it’s the same old bots and farms from before just trying to stir the shit for instability’s sake and keep the worst president ever in charge so he can keep destroying things.

    i’m a little uneasy. it seems many are favoring Musk. is that the general feeling on the Right? some are calling for Vance to replace Trump. i could imagine Musk being welcomed back, and with a smarter (or quieter) fascist president for a figurehead Musk can continue pulling the strings. idk.

      Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if this is an intentional plan by right wing tech billionaires to sideline Trump and install their man Vance, but I’m curious how the MAGA rank and file would react. Trump has become many people’s entire personality

        MAGA rank and file would be pissed. They hated Elon until he backed trump and their views on EV changed. Even fox news can’t fix the hole trump would leave behind if replaced

      This makes me really uneasy.

      I was always of the belief that Trump just had this shit version of charisma that people liked and between that and propaganda they just obsess over him. I never in a million years thought they’d so easily get behind some absolutely empy suit like Vance.

      I was really hoping the GOP winning streak was going to end with Trump, but it looks like we’re just fucked from here on out. :/

        I think it’s far more likely the find a smarter fascist to rally behind than they fracture. They won’t learn their lesson until they have to skip meals for a few months at least. Even then, they will say it’s Biden’s fault.

      They’re coping so hard right now. It’s always hilarious to see cons advocate for non-con positions. One guy is hoping Dump’s bill can be made into smaller bills so that “proper scrutiny” can be given to it. Like my man, if you want oversight on spending you’re in the wrong fucking party.

    I absolutely love how the top post is one from three days ago when the doctrine still was that Elon is a national hero.

    I say let’s try to keep it that way, so please everyone register there and upvote. (You don’t even need to enter an email address, just a username and a password and you’re free to go.)

    I’m sitting this one out. Fuck EVs, fuck H1Bs, fuck pork barrel omnibus bullshit, fuck Palantir, and fuck congress with a pineapple sideways.

    I’m down with this, but why “fuck EVs”? Seems like a personal choice, one that saves money in many/most cases. In a sane world EVs would either be championed by conservatives or, at worst, seen as a neutral topic.

      They can’t understand personal choice because they want to force everyone to live like them, so they assume others want to force them.

      Giving rich people tax credits to buy them, miffs a lot of people esp in context where byd outcompete tesla.

      China also beat us in solar despite state aid provided for that industry too.

      Sounds like a generation of state aid investments got blown and we got nothing or not much to show for it.

      This was before the Tesla tubby blew up the Tesla brand

        GOP tried to stop spending on solar at ever turn. China out-spent us dramatically. That’s the reason we lost, not wasted funds

        /t/fuckcars maybe?

        Absolutely fucking not. MAGA CHUDs are not and never have been part of the ‘fuck cars’ movement, at least as I’ve experienced it. I can’t speak to R*ddit’s r/fuckcars as I’m not affiliated with them (beyond participating in that sub as a user before I quit R*ddit), but MAGAs are not welcome in [email protected] and I will insta-ban anybody who tries to spread anti-EV disinformation.

        – [email protected] mod

        caveats

        1. “Anti-EV disinformation” means false statements disparaging electric cars that push ICE cars as being preferable. It does not mean true statements disparaging electric cars that push non-car modes of transport as being preferable.

        2. Hypothetically, if there were an “urbanist MAGA,” that person would be welcome. But there isn’t, pretty much by definition, so “MAGAs aren’t welcome” is a reasonable shorthand.
