Donald Trump<\/strong> and Elon Musk<\/strong> are fighting again. Yes, less than a month after putting aside<\/a> their last feud<\/a>\u2014which involved threats of canceling government contracts and selling a Tesla, accusations of ingratitude, and the suggestion that the president was \u201cin the Epstein files\u201d\u2014these two have taken up their swords once more (and by swords, we mean their accounts on the respective social media networks they own). Yes, even though they are super well-adjusted and absolutely do not have extreme daddy issues. Yes, even though they always, always<\/em> put the country first and do not<\/em> suffer from such acute levels of narcissism that they think things that amount to \u201cThe world would be a better place if there were dozens of mini-mes running around<\/a>\u201d and \u201cThere should be a parade in my honor<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Things kicked off this time when Musk, who previously dubbed<\/a> Trump\u2019s \u201cbig, beautiful\u201d spending bill a \u201cdisgusting abomination,\u201d\u00a0called for a new political party<\/a>, writing<\/a>, \u201cIf this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day.\u201d Later, he said he would donate<\/a> to the reelection campaign of Representative Thomas Massie<\/strong>\u2014who voted against Trump\u2019s signature bill\u2014and threatened<\/a> any lawmakers \u201cwho campaigned on the PROMISE of REDUCING SPENDING, but continue\u2026to vote on the BIGGEST DEBT ceiling increase in HISTORY.\u201d<\/p>\n That apparently didn\u2019t sit right with Trump, who took to Truth Social\u2014the platform he launched after his ban from Twitter, which Musk later lifted<\/a>\u2014in the early hours of Tuesday to threaten to pull Musk\u2019s government subsidies, ranting<\/a>: \u201cElon Musk knew, long before he so strongly Endorsed me for President, that I was strongly against the EV Mandate. It is ridiculous, and was always a major part of my campaign. Electric cars are fine, but not everyone should be forced to own one. Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa. No more Rocket launches, Satellites, or Electric Car Production, and our Country would save a FORTUNE. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? BIG MONEY TO BE SAVED!!!\u201d<\/p>\n Asked by a reporter if he planned to deport Musk, Trump responded that he\u2019d \u201chave to take a look\u201d and that the administration \u201cmight have to put DOGE on Elon,\u201d a remark that came with a joke about Musk being eaten.<\/p>\n This content can also be viewed on the site it originates<\/a> from.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n In response, Musk announced<\/a> that he was tempted \u201cto escalate this\u201d but would \u201crefrain for now.\u201d It\u2019s not clear what would constitute an escalation in Musk\u2019s mind, but given that he suggested<\/a> Trump was, at best, pals with a convicted sex offender the last time around, it would probably be really bad!<\/p>\n<\/div>\nX content<\/h4>\n
