Trump and Elmo are fighting again / myLot

United States

July 1, 2025 4:13am CST

We all knew that the bromance wouldn't last long between 2 megalomaniacs. Elon Musk criticized Trump last month (I don't even remember why but I'm sure it was about this budget bill) and that devolved into Trump threatening to terminate his government subsidies. That resulted in Elmo stating that the reason that the Epstein files haven't been released because Trump is in them.

Elmo rethought that after he came down from his ketamine high and tweeted that he had "gone too far". Well now that this Big Ugly Bill is now up for a vote Elon has started up again. It is probably because it cuts the requirements for clean energy. He owns Tesla which makes electric cars. He was posting that the bill is political suicide. I don't think his comments have as much power today as they did like 3 months ago. Trump fired back that DOGE should look at Musk's government subsidies for rockets, satellites, or car production. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I am loving this public disintegration of the bromance. The hilarious thing is that the MAGAts loved Elmo and Teslas for a few months after hating them for years. Now they hate them again. But that is a post for later.

@njchicaa The US criteria for being qualified to stand for president really ought to say something about intelligence and dignity. Honesty may be going to far but at least intelligence and dignity would be a start. And for candidates for all high office everywhere.

@NJChicaa Hard to believe that so many voters were willing to overlook that.

Tesla is not as cheap as BYD which have a few more models. Anyway, EM did good with some slashing on the budget even through I do not agree with what he is slashing at times.

Yes, I read earlier that the gloves were off again...and that Trump is threatening to deport Musk. Oh, and as you said, he wants DOGE to investigate Musk. What a clown show.
