• Trump dismissed Elon Musk’s peace offering, calling him “insane” and showing little interest in reconciliation.
• Their public feud, sparked by Musk’s criticism of Trump’s policies, escalated on social media.
• While Musk initially threatened to decommission SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft and later appeared open to reconciliation, Trump remained unconcerned and focused on his legislative agenda.
What cant’ a couple of millions won’t fix? Musk just needs to “donate” a few more millions and it will be all water under the bridge.
I don’t think Trump needs Musk anymore at this point. With all his crypto grifts, market manipulation and other schemes he made quite a penny for himself.
I’m also bet Trump would like for Musk to be knocked down a few pegs, so he could point at him and show the other oligarchs what happens when they don’t play along.
Musk may be more valuable as a scapegoat to trump with all the pending fallout of DOGE costs and the coming recession.
It was meant to be this way.
They are litterally following a WWF script
Fucking Pandas.
Turns out hiring Linda MacMahon as the Secretary of Education was just show she could teach them how to write wrasslin’ scripts.
I feel you. That’s exactly what Putin did. Get rid of one oligarch so the other ones knew what happens if you don’t toe the party line.
You mean someone is going to mysterously fall out the window?
Nothing is off the table.
Reverse South African Prince scam…
You could swap the names Musk and Trump and it would still be true.
While Trump initially threatened to decommission SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft and later appeared open to reconciliation, Musk remained unconcerned and focused on his legislative agenda.
Yup.
Trump is so spiteful that this will be wonderful to watch.
It’s nice to see, it’s unfortunate they’re fighting for the wrong reasons.
That’s not all bad. At least mom and dad are fighting over who gets custody of MAGA. It would actually kind of suck if Elon went back to pretending to be a good guy and fronting for liberals pretending to address climate change.
As if there is ever a right reason… They are both unreasonable. Just lucky
Anybody have a TLDR for people who have been blissfully unaware of the Space Karen vs Twitler slap fight?
Essentially: Elon gets mad about the recent budget bill in congress. He’s also angry he can’t stay in his special government employee role full-time. He is also getting pressure from his shareholders for EV credits getting cut during his time in government.
Elon starts tweeting against the bill, and this starts a back and forth, with Elon and Trump fighting like exes trying to be vague
The subtext is quickly dropped and tensions amplify until Elon threatens to decommissioned his dragon rocket. Trump retaliates by saying that Elon kept him out of the loop on DOGE and was useless. This part is a bit hazy for me. But this is during their main spat when Elon was posting on Twitter non-stop.
This eventually culminates in Elon admitting publicly that Trump is in the Epstein files. Trump threatened to retaliate by pulling all government contracts that involve Elon’s companies.
Elon, realizing he burned the last political bridge he has, is likely trying to salvage what he can. It is likely to go nowhere as Trump is as vindictive and petty as they come.
The first comment is the TL:DT of the article
I want Lonnie to challenge Donnie to a cage fight. Alas, he’d back out of that if Donnie accepted, just like with Zuckafuck. But Donnie shitting his diaper in a chokehold would be hilarious. And Lonnie pissing himself from all the ketamine would be assured.
Can we please try to make this happen?
Don would chicken out first, TACO
They are both out of shape. Probably fight by proxy
Oh yes, please create a new party buddy.
It takes one to know one.
It’s fun to watch two people competing in the marketplace of ideas
