Elon Musk makes first public visit to the White House since feud with Trump
"Elon Musk made it back to the White House. The world's richest man was seen attending a dinner at the White House on Tuesday night with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. "We have the biggest business leaders in the world," President Donald Trump said at the dinner. It's Musk's first public visit to the White House since his feud with President Donald Trump exploded in June following Musk's departure from his role as the de facto leader of the White House DOGE Office."
"The feud between the two men began as Congress began working on the "Big Beautiful Bill," a sprawling fiscal package at the centerpiece of Trump's domestic agenda. Musk publicly took issue with the bill's impact on the national debt, while Trump and other Republicans alleged that the Tesla CEO was really concerned about the bill's phase-out of electric vehicle incentives. Following the bill's passage in July, Musk floated the idea of forming a third party called the "America Party.""
Elon Musk attended a White House dinner on Tuesday night with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. President Donald Trump said, "We have the biggest business leaders in the world," at the dinner. The visit marked Musk's first public White House appearance since his feud with Trump escalated in June after Musk left his role as the de facto leader of the White House DOGE Office. The disagreement began during congressional work on the "Big Beautiful Bill," with Musk raising concerns about the national debt and Republicans accusing him of focusing on electric vehicle incentive phase-outs. Musk later floated an "America Party" that did not materialize. Recent interactions have included a brief face-to-face at Charlie Kirk's memorial service and intermittent communications that Trump described as "good," while Musk has reduced public criticism of the administration.
