Trump: No plans to speak to Musk over feud

United States President Donald Trump says he has no plans to speak with X owner Elon Musk over their feud.

This shows Trump and his former ally might not resolve their feud over a sweeping tax-cut bill any time soon.

Addressing reporters aboard Air Force One on Friday, June 6, 2025, Trump said he wasn’t “thinking about” the Tesla CEO.

“I hope he does well with Tesla,” the president said.

However, Trump said a review of Musk’s extensive contracts with the federal government was in order.

“We’ll take a look at everything. “It’s a lot of money,” he added.

Trump may get rid of the red Tesla Model S that he bought in March after showcasing Musk’s electric cars on the White House lawn, a White House official speaking on condition of anonymity told Reuters.

Musk, for his part, did not directly address Trump but kept up his criticism of the massive Republican tax and spending bill that contains much of Trump’s domestic agenda.

On his social-media platform X, Musk amplified remarks made by others that Trump’s “big beautiful bill” would hurt Republicans politically and add to the nation’s $36.2 trillion debt.

He replied “exactly” to a post by another X user that said Musk had criticized Congress and Trump had responded by criticizing Musk personally.

Musk also declared it was time for a new political party in the United States “to represent the 80% in the middle!”
