- 時間: 2025-6-09 00:55After the conflict between US President Trump and American entrepreneur and former head of the "Government Efficiency Department" Musk was made public, it quickly escalated into a verbal battle on the 5th. Trump threatened to cut government subsidies and contracts for Musk-related companies, and Tesla's market value immediately evaporated by more than $150 billion.
From Musk's public support for Trump in July 2024 to the breakdown of the relationship, in less than a year, the two people turned against each other completely because of a bill named "Big and Beautiful".
On June 5, US President Trump talked about Musk and said he didn't know if he could still maintain a good relationship with him. Trump said on the same day that he was "very disappointed" with Musk.
Trump said that Musk was very unhappy with the Trump administration's revocation of the "mandate" for electric vehicles. Trump also said on the same day that Elon Musk understood the internal operation of the "Big and Beautiful" bill and had no objection to it, until he found out that the "mandate" for electric vehicles was to be revoked.
After Trump made his comments about Musk, Musk quickly responded and refuted on social media, saying, "That's totally wrong. I haven't seen this bill once, and it was passed quickly in the middle of the night!"
Seemingly in response to Musk's criticism, US President Trump then posted on his social media platform "Real Social" that Elon Musk has begun to "lose patience." Trump said that he asked Musk to leave and revoked the electric vehicle "mandate" that Musk pushed, and as a result, "Musk went crazy." Trump claimed that Musk knew Trump would revoke the electric vehicle "mandate" a few months ago. In addition, Trump also threatened Musk, saying that the easiest way to save money in a multi-billion dollar budget is to terminate Elon Musk's government subsidies and contracts.
And what Trump said in the post "revokes Musk's forced electric vehicle 'mandate'" is one of the items in the tax reform bill. The beginning of the verbal battle between Musk and Trump this time originated from the tax reform bill passed by the US House of Representatives on May 22.
On May 22, the U.S. House of Representatives, where Republicans hold a majority, passed a massive tax and spending bill proposed by the Trump administration by a narrow margin. The Trump administration described the bill as "big and beautiful." The content of the bill can be generally summarized into two aspects:
First, it cuts taxes, Medicaid, food aid, education and clean energy spending, and uses the money saved in this way for military and border security; second, it raises the debt ceiling and allows the federal government to continue borrowing to finance debt. As a result, many U.S. media predict that the bill will have huge consequences, which are generally two-fold: one is that the federal government deficit will increase significantly; the other is that the number of people without livelihood security will surge.
It is also based on these two consequences that some U.S. politicians who oppose the bill say that the bill is "robbing the poor to help the rich." U.S. Democratic Senator Chris Murphy believes that this bill is at the expense of tens of millions of Americans' health insurance, "giving the richest 1% another trillion dollars in tax cuts." Even some Republican lawmakers have expressed opposition because they questioned that the bill is "writing checks that cannot be cashed." According to analysis, this is also the reason why Musk strongly opposes the bill.
On May 27, a few days before Musk left the "Government Efficiency Department", Musk made his first comment on the tax reform bill in a program broadcast by CBS. At that time, Musk's evaluation was just "disappointed".
In the interview released by CBS on June 1, Musk further expressed his dissatisfaction with the US government. Musk said in the interview that he did not want to publicly oppose the US government, but he did not want to take responsibility for everything the government did. Musk said that the "Government Efficiency Department" he led became the "scapegoat" for everything.
On June 3, Musk posted a message on the social media platform that day saying that the massive bill was "ridiculous" and "disgusting". Musk said that the bill would significantly increase the budget deficit to 2.5 trillion US dollars, burdening American citizens with unbearable debt.
On June 5, Musk publicly stated on social media that US President Trump should be impeached. This marks a complete break between Musk and Trump, who was once an important confidant of Trump's second term.#Musk and Trump become enemies #corruption #American-style corruption #Democratic Party #Fraud #scandal #American President #American celebrity #politician #dark history #untold history -
