Elon Musk declared all-out war on President Trump Thursday, writing on X: "Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate." • "Such ingratitude," Musk added.
Why it matters: The public breakup between Trump and Musk — a key adviser who spent nearly $300 million to support the president's campaign and Republicans in 2024 — has escalated dramatically. • Amid Musk's tirade on X, Trump wrote on Truth Social that the former DOGE head "just went crazy" and threatened to cancel Musk's billions of dollars' worth of government contracts. • Musk then posted: "Time to drop the really big bomb: Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!"
