Washington: A high-voltage drama is going on in American politics these days. President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Alan Musk are now face to face. The two, once fans of each other, are now openly attacking public forums. Trump has openly threatened Musk that his government contracts and subsidies can be abolished, while Musk has made Trump a sensational allegation of joining Epstein files. Let’s understand the full story of this conflict.
Trump Vs Musk: How did the quarrel begin?
Trump’s criticism passed away to Trump. He immediately responded to Musk in public and said that he is very disappointed with this behavior. He claimed that Allen Musk was aware of every aspect of this bill and he never objected to it before.
Trump also said that Musk had a problem only when he came to know that electric vehicle subsidy was being cut, causing a loss of billions of dollars to his companies. He described Musk as a favor and said that if needed, he will end his government contracts and subsidies. Following these statements by Trump, Tesla’s shares declined drastically and the company’s market capitalization declined by $ 150 billion in a single day.
Musk called Trump’s claim to be false and said that he was never shown this bill. He said that Trump is now spreading lies and only the people will be harmed by such politics. Musk even said that if he had not been there, the trump would have lost the election and the Democrats would have been in majority in both houses of Parliament. He accused Trump of gratitude.
False, this bill was never shown to me even on the dead of night so fast that almost no one in Congress count even read it! https://t.co/v4ztekqd4g
