Considering it was a pretty popular chorus during election season that Musk was grifting for Trump as a tit for tat, that's an... interesting thing for Trump to say out loud.

This was the most predictable outcome possible. Trump hasnt seen a bridge he wouldnt burn in his life

In this case, it was Elon who started it

Publically advocating for the President’s signature bill to be killed is the definition of bridge burning.

Unless I missed something

It’s entitlements. Has Elon ever spoken out in favor of entitlement reform?




Yes. It was a big dem talking point that President Elon was going to kill SS and Medicare

TSLA down 16%.

What an embarrassment as an American to have our freaking President and the world's richest man lobbing cheap shots back and forth over social media for the world to see.

The bill sucks, Elon sucks, and Trump sucks. Can we elect grown ups next time, be it GOP or dem?

And it's still better than a civilized Harris administration.

While funny watching this shite show live, Elon isn’t really putting forth anything new there. Hell, dems tried to implicate Trump in the Epstein stuff during the 2020 election because he was on flight logs on Epstein’s plane. His name was even in the data released back in February.

Man....it was like no dem learned anything from "defund the police". And then doubled down by forcefully nominating someone who was on tape saying taxpayers should fund prisoner sex changes!

Dumb. Dumbness all around. Just give us a smart, pragmatic person who doesn't use social media.

No.It’s not new, and what makes this interesting, isn’t whether it’s new information or even true, it’s that they went from BFFs, to having some normal police disagreements, to accusations about suppressing information about one’s relation with a sex trafficker, very quickly.

I figured they would have a falling out eventually, as so often is the case with Trump (and Elon to a lesser degree though), I just didn’t expect it to get to this point so quickly.

I'm still on the boat that this is largely theater, usually is when anything political is done this loudly, but it is 100% entertaining to watch the shitfest.

Sure. But this is more like the real housewives. They got on the show partially due to their wealth, partially due to their flair for the dramatic, and partially due to their need for attention. Not completely real, but not completely fake either.

Reminds me of an old LBJ quote about a spat with a political rival

"I'd rather have him in the tent pissing out than outside the tent pissing in"
