Elon Musk and President Donald Trump are no longer besties. Everyone knew the brofest between the Richest Man in the World and the Most Powerful Man in the World was never going to end well. And that makes it all the more awe-inspiring when it finally ends—not with a bang, but with a fusillade of nasty shitposts. So pull up your chair, and enjoy the antics of America's Finest. Most of us can remember the lovely sendoff President Trump gave the celebrated sperm donor Elon Musk (cue Green Day) on May 30: "It's not the end of DOGE, but the beginning." Trump held a press conference together with Elon Musk, in which he thanked the billionaire for his time as a senior advisor to the administration. https://t.co/4d3TL9cVpB pic.twitter.com/ak6Vn6t6YX — DW News (@dwnews) May 31, 2025 But storm clouds had clearly gathered. Trump's warm hand clasp was probably still a-tingle a few days later on Musk's skin when he typed out his first banger, criticizing his former pal's big beautiful bill as a "disgusting abomination." I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it. — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 3, 2025 Oh, dear. Never one to turn the other cheek, President Trump began Thursday with a few remarks about how disappointed he was in Elon. Trump even pointed out that he'd have won Pennsylvania in the general election had it not been for Musk, and that "Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore.” President Trump on Elon Musk: "I've always liked Elon. I was very surprised...He hasn't said anything about me that's bad. I'd rather have him criticize me than the bill because the bill is incredible...I'm very disappointed in Elon. I've helped Elon a lot." pic.twitter.com/ExnBTnYGuw — CSPAN (@cspan) June 5, 2025 Then the president escalated the Tirade War by issuing a veiled threat... Trump: The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts. - $TSLA pic.twitter.com/uSRVoZ5oSL — Hardik Shah (@AIStockSavvy) June 5, 2025 ...and confiding to the world that Elon was giving him the ick: Such an obvious lie. So sad. https://t.co/sOu9vqMVfX — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 5, 2025 Oh, yeah? Well Musk isn't going to be fired, he quit! In light of the President’s statement about cancellation of my government contracts, @SpaceX will begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft immediately pic.twitter.com/NG9sijjkgW — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 5, 2025 And then Musk drops the "really big bomb" on Trump: Time to drop the really big bomb:@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT! — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 5, 2025 Wait, what? The Trump tariffs will cause a recession in the second half of this year https://t.co/rbBC11iynE — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 5, 2025 Now he's really hitting below the belt.
