Trump says he and Elon Musk 'had a great relationship,' but it might be over now
Briefly

In response to Elon Musk's critique of his "Big Beautiful Bill", President Trump acknowledged their previously good relationship is now strained. Trump suggested Musk's discontent is rooted in the bill's elimination of electric vehicle tax credits, which could negatively affect Tesla. Musk lambasted the bill on social media, calling it a "disgusting abomination" due to its estimated $2.4 trillion to $2.5 trillion increase in the federal deficit. Despite Musk's concerns regarding fiscal responsibility, Republican leaders have dismissed his critique, asserting he is incorrect about the bill's implications.
I don't know if we will anymore. Elon was upset because we took the EV mandate, which was a lot of money for electric vehicles.
This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.
Musk said that the bill undermined the work of DOGE, which has sought to cut billions of dollars in federal spending.
Republicans on Capitol Hill have largely brushed off Musk's criticism. Musk is flat wrong about the bill.
