House Speaker Mike Johnson said Friday on CNBC that he hopes the stunning feud between Elon Musk and President Trump is quickly resolved.
Why it matters: Musk personally targeted Johnson (R-La.) in a series of posts on Thursday. Johnson refers to Musk as a friend, and said he and Musk had a "very friendly conversation" as recently as Monday. • Johnson said he and Musk can have "policy differences," but it "shouldn't be personal." • "I don't argue with him about how to build rockets. And I wish he wouldn't argue with me about how to craft legislation and pass it," Johnson said. • "I respect them both," Johnson said of Trump and Musk.
