Elon Musk Claims Trump Mentioned in Epstein Files Amid Feud Escalation
Elon Musk publicly accused Donald Trump of being named in Jeffrey Epstein's files, escalating a heated feud between the two. Musk posted on X that Trump is in Epstein's records and suggested that the truth will eventually come out. This claim intensified tensions after Musk criticized Trump's signature tax and spending bill, calling it a 'disgusting abomination.' Trump responded by expressing disappointment in Musk, criticizing him for turning against the bill, which Trump called 'big and beautiful.' The feud also involved Trump threatening to cancel government contracts with Musk's companies, and shares of Tesla fell nearly 12% after Trump's remarks. Musk's allegations come amid broader political tensions, with Musk criticizing the bill for increasing the deficit and Trump mocking Musk's appearance and policies. The controversy highlights a deepening rift between the billionaire tech mogul and the former president, with implications for their political and business relationships.
