The row between Musk and Trump erupted over a tax relief bill that economists estimate could increase the US budget deficit by $600 billion, which Trump called "great and beautiful" and Musk called a "disgusting perversion."
During the public clash that broke out on June 5, Musk decided to "drop a real bomb" and said that Trump was involved in the case of financier Jeffrey Epstein, who was suspected of trafficking minors lured to a private island, where they were raped by representatives of the American and world elite, but Musk later deleted the post.
In addition, Musk said that without his support, Trump "would not have won the election" and also supported a proposal to recall the president and replace him with Vice President JD Vance.
Reacting to the billionaire's statements, Trump said Musk was "simply out of his mind."
According to the New York Times, Trump linked Musk's posts to drug use. The businessman denied this, stressing that a few years ago he took prescription ketamine to fight depression.
At the same time, Trump refused to talk to Musk to resolve the conflict.
"I'm not thinking about Elon. He's in trouble. The poor guy is in trouble," Trump said.

With the imposition of a state of emergency and curfew, the use of the military, and eventually arrests, protesters in Chile were persecuted and punished. Decrees were introduced whereby university rectors were appointed by the army, while campuses were nationalized or privatized. It was only in 1987, near the end of Pinochet's dictatorship, that the students managed to force the regime to make concessions through a new series of protests and restore some kind of limited autonomy.
Aleksandar Vučić is no longer able to restore balance in the rebellious society. This is best seen in the level of speech: none of his remarks go through anymore
If we are neutral while students are being imprisoned, girls and boys are being beaten for God's justice, democracy is being suppressed, dissenters are being dehumanized, corruption is continuing that kills and many other evil things are being done - then nothing
Serbia is not ready for fires, storms and floods, but President Aleksandar Vučić is ready to turn everything into propaganda
