Elon Musk Expresses Regret Over Tweets Targeting Trump
In a surprising turn of events, Elon Musk has expressed regret about his recent social media posts criticizing President Donald Trump.
Elon Musk has made headlines after revealing his regrets regarding certain online posts directed at President Donald Trump. The tech mogul stated on his platform, X, that he felt his comments about Trump “went too far.” This admission follows a bitter public fallout ignited when Musk labelled Trump’s tax bill a “disgusting abomination.” The feud intensified after Trump announced his disinterest in reconciling with Musk, prompting a reaction from Musk about the tax legislation proposed in Congress. He urged Americans to contact their representatives to reject the bill, which he claims may lead to a recession later this year.
Musk’s previous accusations linking Trump to unreleased files involving Jeffrey Epstein were met with strong denials from the White House, and Trump retaliated by stating that Musk had “lost his mind,” threatening to cancel his government contracts valued at approximately $38 billion that are critical for his ventures including SpaceX.
Musk's walk-back of his comments has been met with mixed responses, with some Republicans urging the duo to mend their differences, while others, like former Trump advisor Steve Bannon, have called for Musk's deportation due to his South African origins. Even amidst these tensions, US Vice President JD Vance expressed hope for Musk to reconnect with the Republican Party. This fallout comes shortly after Musk departed from his role in the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) after a brief stint of just 129 days.
