The tone continues to increase between Donald Trump and Elon Musk. New episode in the breakdown of the media between the two men, the US president said that the chief of Tesla and Spacex “should probably close the store and return home in South Africa” if the United States retained the subsidies granted to their businesses.
The tensions seemed to have appeared in recent weeks between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, the latter in particular considered it “was too far” in his criticisms of the White House.
Elon Musk does not hide his anger for the project of the new budget law of Donald Trump, which the US president calls the “big and beautiful law”, which provides, among other things, an elimination of the credits granted in favor of electric vehicles, in which Tesla reigns in the United States.
At night, he described the “great and beautiful and the law” of Donald Trump at night as a “bill on the slavery of debt.”
The budget invoice intends to accelerate the withdrawal of a measure that allows obtaining $ 7,500 of fiscal credit for the purchase of a new electric vehicle and $ 4,000 for a used electric vehicle.
“They will lose their primary”
“Each member of the Congress that campaigned to reduce public spending and then voted immediately due to the greatest increase in debt in history should reduce the chief of shame,” he warms the billionaire in his social network X (Ex-Twitter).
“And they will lose their primary next year, even if it is the last thing I do on this earth,” he threatened. In another message, Elon Musk says he will form “the next day” a new political party, baptized “the party of America”, if this Law of Crazy Expenses “is adopted.”
Donald Trump responded a few hours later in his own social social network, threatening to withdraw the state subsidies of Elon Musk’s companies. The latter “knew, long before supporting me with such firmness for the presidency, that I strongly opposed the mandate of EV”, a non -binding frame for the transition to the electric vehicle that provides a 50% target of the electric vehicles sold in the United States in 2030, established under Joe Biden. “Electric cars are good, but no one should be forced to possess one,” he continued.
“Elon [Musk] It could receive more subsidies than any human being in history, by far. Without these subsidies, Elon should probably close stores and return home in South Africa, “said Donald Trump.
Rockets, cars and satellites
“The launch of more rockets, satellite or electric cars, and our country would save a fortune,” the US president continued. “Maybe we should ask Doge to examine this well? Great sums to save!”
Musk seems, in any case, wanting to go very fast. He has just shared, always in X, a message in which he claims to participate in the financing of the campaign of a dissident republican candidate that appears in the Congress elections.
