Inside the Trump-Musk Breakup
Briefly

Tensions rose between President Trump and Elon Musk following a seemingly amicable relationship. Despite a friendly send-off for Musk after a visit to the White House, Musk's public criticisms of Trump's Republican spending bill ignited a feud. Musk condemned the legislation as a 'disgusting abomination' and expressed dissatisfaction with Trump's rejection of his NASA pick. This escalated when Musk called for Trump's impeachment, alleging ties to Jeffrey Epstein, leading to a public clash on social media that showcased their fractured relationship.

Musk couldn't let go of his grievances—the exclusion of electric-vehicle tax credits from the bill, and Trump's rejection of Musk's pick to run NASA.
