In the politics of America, the conflict between two veterans – Donald Trump and Alan Musk – has now come out openly. Former US President Donald Trump has clearly stated that he is not interested in improving his relationship with Alan Musk. He also warned Musk that if he supports Democratic candidates, it can have “very serious consequences”.
In an interview given to NBC, Trump said, “I don’t want to talk to Musk. They have chosen their path. If they support the Democrats, it can be overwhelming for them.” Trump’s gesture was towards the government contracts and subsidy received by Musk’s companies – Spacex, Tesla and Starlink. Trump indicated that if Musk’s political inclination is towards Democrats, then the government cooperation given to his companies could stop.
The tension started with Trump’s tax-cut and expense bill, which was severely criticized by Musk. Musk described that bill as “disgusting” and “financially dangerous”. Musk then shared a post on social media, in which Trump’s name was linked to Jeffre Epstein. Although he later deleted the post, by then the matter had deteriorated.
Both Trump and Musk have a deep hold in US politics and technology. On the one hand, Trump Republican is the party’s presidential chief contender, while Musk is one of the most influential industrialists in the world. In such a situation, the conflict between these two is not only a matter of discussion in political circles, but it can also affect Musk’s companies and their business interests.
After this statement, the eyes are now on whether Mask will give any retaliation or he will try to cool the controversy.
