Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s once-strong alliance has publicly collapsed in June 2025, with Musk launching a series of heated attacks on social media over policy disagreements and personal grievances.On June 3, Musk slammed Trump’s new spending proposal as a “disgusting abomination,” later mocking it as the “Debt Slavery Bill.” He added sarcastically, “There has never been legislation that both \[sic] big and beautiful. Everyone knows this!”

That same day, Musk claimed, “Without me, Trump would have lost the election,” implying he was crucial to Trump’s success. Trump responded by accusing Musk of betrayal and “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”Musk escalated further, alleging, “@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files,” prompting a firestorm of skepticism online. Critics questioned why Democrats hadn’t released such information earlier if it were true.

In response to a user calling for Trump’s impeachment, Musk simply replied, “Yes,” signaling support for removing the president.
Finally, Musk reacted to Trump’s threat to cut federal contracts by declaring SpaceX would begin “decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft.” Trump fired back, saying canceling Musk’s subsidies would save “Billions and Billions of Dollars.”
As Trump defended the legislation as a “Path of Greatness,” the feud revealed a deep and potentially irreversible rift between two major power players.
