Trump and Musk clash over ‘big beautiful’ tax bill and EV subsidies

President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he was disappointed by Elon Musk’s criticism of the Republican tax reduction package, which billionaire described as “disgusting abomination” and urged congress to prevent.

“Well, look, as you know, I always loved Elon, so I was very surprised, and I saw the words he had. Nothing about me said this is bad. I prefer to criticize me from the bill, because the draft law is incredible,” Trump said in the availability of a White House journalist alongside German Chancellor Friedrich Mirz. “It is the biggest reduction in our country’s history.”

Trump said: “Eileon is upset because we took the author of EV … which was a lot of money for electric cars, as you know, they are facing a difficult time, and they want us to pay billions of dollars as support,” Trump said. “Elon knew this from the beginning, he knew it long ago.”

Trump said he did not believe that Musk’s recommendation from the candidate to lead NASA was appropriate because the potential candidate was democratic, so that he could understand the cause of musk discomfort.

Trump said, “I had a great relationship.” “He said wonderful things about me, you can’t have the most beautiful, he said the best things. He wore that hat – Trump was right in everything – and I am right about the beautiful big bill. We call it a wonderful, large and beautiful bill because this is what it is.”

The president added: “The biggest tax cuts in history. The largest economic development is moving anywhere, we did nothing like that.”

Trump also said that Musk was aware of the provisions of the draft law related to the authorization of EV and incentives, saying: “Illon knew the internal business of the law better than anyone sitting here” and that “he has no problem in that” at first.

“Suddenly he had a problem, and he only developed the problem when he discovered that we would have to reduce EV’s authorization because this is billions and billions of dollars,” the president said.

He added: “It is really unfair, we want to have cars of all kinds. Electricity – we want to be electric. But we want to get gasoline burning, we want to be different – we want to be hybrids. We want to be able to sell everything.”

“If I saw the statements he said about me, which I am sure you can get very easily, it is very new on the tape, he said the most beautiful things about me. He didn’t say bad about me personally, but I am sure that it will be after that. But I am very disappointed in Elon, I helped Elon a lot.”

Musk retracted Trump’s comments with a series of publications on the x social media platform, where he criticized the contents of the one beautiful bill.

“Whatever it is. Keep EV/Solar incentives in the draft law, although there are no oil and gas subsidies (very unfair !!), but disposal of disgusting pork mountain in the draft law,” MUSK wrote in one of the positions on X.

“Either you get a large and ugly invoice or a skinny and beautiful invoice. Skin and beautiful is the road,” he added.

Musk said that he left in the dark about the draft law, as Trump’s statement was confused that he was aware of its contents, and writing on X: “A mistake, this bill did not appear to me until once and passed in the death of the night so that almost no one in Congress could read it!”

The CEO of Tesla said in a later position that the president and the Republicans will not be in power without supporting him in the last elections and they should be more appreciated.

“On me, Trump had lost the elections, the democrats will control the House of Representatives and the Republicans will be 51-49 in the Senate,” Musk said in another position. “This is Ingratetde.”
