"The Tesla and SpaceX CEO received an invitation to Trump's White House dinner on Tuesday with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The dinner had a guest list dominated by CEOs. Musk was joined by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Apple CEO Tim Cook, and Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff. This was Musk's first public appearance at the White House after he fell out with Trump in May."
"Following the dinner, Musk posted pictures taken at the dinner on X, which showed himself, the crown prince, Huang, and Trump. "I would like to thank President Trump for all he has done for America and the world," Musk's post said. And during his speech at the US-Saudi Investment Forum in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, Trump made some lighthearted jokes at Musk's expense."
"The slow thawing of tensions between the two comes after several months of intense public feuding. Timeline of the Musk-Trump feud Musk and Trump have had a tumultuous relationship over the past year. The two became steadfast political allies when Musk backed Trump's 2024 presidential bid. Musk then called himself the 'first buddy' after Trump's win."
Elon Musk and Donald Trump appear to be reconciling after a months-long public feud. Musk attended a White House dinner with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and a guest list dominated by CEOs, including Nvidia's Jensen Huang, Apple's Tim Cook, and Salesforce's Marc Benioff. Musk posted photos on X and thanked President Trump "for all he has done for America and the world." Trump later made lighthearted jokes about Musk during the US-Saudi Investment Forum. The two had been political allies when Musk backed Trump's 2024 bid; Musk led the White House's Department of Government Efficiency before leaving in May, and their relationship soured after mutual public criticisms.
