US President Donald Trump says he was “very surprised” and “disappointed” with his former ally Elon Musk’s criticisms of his budget bill.
“Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore,” Trump told reporters in the White House.
It was the president’s most direct criticism yet of Musk’s lobbying efforts against the proposals to cut taxes and slash government spending – a plan that has drawn criticism from Musk and some Republicans.
In response, Musk doubled down on X, saying that the bill was filled with “pork” – wasteful government spending – and writing: “I think a bill can be big or it could be beautiful. I don’t know if it could be both.”
“I think a bill can be big or it could be beautiful. I don't know if it could be both.”
