The world’s richest man had some harsh words for Donald Trump’s so-called “big, beautiful” bill on Saturday.

Elon Musk worked with Trump for months after the election, only to have a spectacular blow-up after his exit from the White House. That public fight began due to Musk’s criticism of Trump’s signature bill.

Musk appeared to make up with Trump, and started holding his tongue more. It has been weeks since reporters have had anything to say about Musk criticizing Trump or his legislation.

      Yeah, that’s S.O.P. for this entire administration… which makes everything feel infinitely worse…

    The Nazis just mad he’s no longer part of the genocide. He needs to goose step his ass back to South Africa by foot and without a boat or plane.

      Maybe his pee really is clean now and he’s just realizing how fucking nuts he was.

      Nah that’s even more crazy.

    Why is anyone listening to what Elon says?
    Any interview with Elon needs to start with “You said Trump was in the Epstein logs, is that true or did you make it up?” Followed by “Why would you support and work for a person in the Epstein logs?”

    So, i am confused. If Musk says something is bad - then it must be good, right? But that thing is coming from Trump, meaning it certainly must be horrible shit. So much confusion!

      It’s as bad as Elon is saying! He’s just upset it isn’t worse, he was promised it would be worse, and that he’d get a lot of money, but they left him out so he’s really disappointed.

    What the fuck is up with Musk’s upside down smile? How does he even manage that?

    It is, but him saying that is an obvious attempt to buy back his reputation. His clock stopped at the Nazi salute. But even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

      Oh, this is all going to affect him. Not in the way he likes.

      The guy formerly in the inner circle is soon going to realize that he made the entire government consist of inner circles. Dictatorships don’t run on laws.

      Those laws primarily protect the rich.

      The country of laws that existed four years ago served Elon more than it served any other individual. But because there were a few laws he didn’t like, he helped to destroy all of it.

      We’re all going to pay for that, Elon included most of all.
