Elon Musk and Donald Trump Engage in Public Feud Amid Epstein Document Controversy
Musk accuses Trump of being linked to unreleased Jeffrey Epstein documents as tensions escalate between the billionaire and the former president.
In a dramatic escalation between technology mogul Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump, Musk has publicly alleged Trump's connection to classified documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, a financier who died by suicide while facing charges of sex trafficking.
Musk stated on his social media platform, X, that Trump appears in the Epstein documents, suggesting this as the reason for their non-disclosure.
He posted, "It’s time to drop the big bomb," and added, "Have a nice day, DJT," using Trump's initials in a sarcastic manner.
This controversy follows a recent fallout between Musk and Trump, marked by Musk's support for impeachment proceedings against the former president.
He shared a post advocating for Trump's removal from office, reinforcing the rift that seems to have developed between the two influential figures.
In further developments, Musk announced plans to dismantle the Dragon spacecraft, which has been utilized by NASA to transport astronauts to the International Space Station.
This decision comes in response to Trump's threats to revoke government contracts associated with Musk's companies, specifically SpaceX.
Musk's recent comments include warnings about Trump's tariffs potentially leading to a recession later this year.
In light of the ongoing scandal, Trump's advisors convened for multiple discussions to assess the implications of Musk's statements.
Amidst the infighting, Trump himself has publicly expressed disappointment in Musk, having previously praised him as a patriotic ally.
Trump remarked, "I am very disappointed.
I helped him a lot.
He knew every detail of the bill, better than anyone in that room."
Additionally, Steve Bannon, a prominent figure in Trump’s rise to power, has called for Musk to be "immediately deported," reflecting the intensified animosity within Trump's circle against Musk.
The feud between Musk and Trump presents a notable intersection of technology, politics, and personal rivalry, drawing significant attention in political and economic spheres across the United States.
