What will happen next for Elon Musk and Donald Trump
The ongoing feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump could have significant repercussions for both. Once allies, their relationship soured after Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” which Musk criticized for expanding the budget deficit. The conflict has escalated, with Trump threatening SpaceX’s federal funding, while Musk retaliated by briefly threatening to decommission the Dragon capsule, crucial for NASA missions. Tesla’s stock also dropped 14% amid rumors of Trump slashing electric vehicle tax credits.
Musk has even called for Trump’s impeachment and hinted at backing anti-Trump candidates in upcoming elections. However, his stance has drawn backlash from Republicans, with some calling his actions “childish.” Musk further fueled the feud by alleging, without evidence, Trump’s connection to Jeffrey Epstein. As tensions rise, the public watches closely, unsure how this clash between two of the world’s most powerful figures will unfold.
