During a recent press event, President Trump expressed his disappointment towards Elon Musk's criticism of the budget bill central to his 2025 agenda. Although Trump stated he has always liked Musk, he suggested that Musk's critiques may stem from self-interest, particularly with the bill's cuts to electric vehicle subsidies. Musk, on his social media platform, responded to Trump's comments, asserting his stance against the bill's excessive spending while still supporting the cuts to EV incentives. Trump emphasized his longstanding support for Musk but indicated their relationship may be strained.
I was very surprised. You saw the words he had for me. And he hasn't said anything about me that's bad. I'd rather have him criticize me than the bill because the bill is incredible.
Self-interest may be a factor for Musk in his criticism of the budget bill as the legislation does away with subsidies for electric vehicles.
