The pair of US President Donald Trump and billionaire businessman Elon Musk, which was considered to be Jigri Musk, now seems to have a crack. A day earlier, Musk targeted Trump’s tax and spending bill, calling it disgusting and shameful. Now Trump has said that he is not convinced about whether his good relationship with Musk will be able to maintain further. He is disappointed with the public opposition from Musk. This is the first time Trump has publicly talked about the sourness in relationships with Musk.
According to a Reuters report, the US President said on Thursday, “Look, there was a very good relationship between Elon and me. I don’t know whether we will be able to keep it ahead and not. They have said the best things about me, and he did not personally say bad about me, but I am sure it will be ahead.”
‘There was no problem before the bill, then it suddenly happened’
Trump also claimed that Musk’s attacks on the tax and spending bill, the proposal to remove the consumer tax credit for electric vehicles, was inspired by the proposal. According to Trump, “I am very disappointed with Elon. I have helped him a lot. He knew the internal functioning of the bill better than anyone sitting here.
In his statement, Trump also said that Musk was upset as he missed working for Trump. He also said, “Musk is not the first, people leave my administration … Then after some time they start missing it badly, and some of them hug it and some of them become really hostile.”

Musk told Trump’s statement lie
Shortly after Trump’s statement, Musk wrote on the social media platform X that the US President is false that Musk knew the details of the bill. He wrote, ‘Lies, this bill was never shown to me even once and passed so fast at night that almost no one in the Congress could read it!’ Earlier, Electric Vehicle Maker Tesla CEO Musk said that he opposed the bill as it would increase the loss of the US government.
Musk condemned the bill, calling it a bill full of objectionable and unnecessary expenses. He criticized the MPs supporting it, saying, “Those who voted for it should be ashamed. You know that you did wrong.” On one hand, Musk has expressed his disagreement over Trump’s new bill. At the same time, Trump has named this bill ‘Big Beautiful Bill’.

Musk came into Trump administration with a plan to cut the budget by $ 2 lakh crore
Musk entered the Trump administration with a plan to cut the US government’s budget by $ 2 million crore. He was assigned the leadership of the Government Efficiency Department. The department took several decisions to reduce government spending, including pruning, foreign aid and closure of several funding programs in government departments. Despite a cut of billions of dollars, a very low part of the target set to cut the budget could be achieved. The total expenditure was about 1% cut. At the same time, there were also voices of protest within the Trump administration. Musk left the Trump government last week.
