Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s friendship seems to have been rekindled as Musk publicly expressed gratitude to the president. The relationship between the two had soured a few months ago, following a public fallout between the billionaire tech mogul and Trump, despite their previous collaboration during Trump’s election campaign.
Musk took to Twitter to thank President Trump for his contributions to America and the global community, signaling a potential end to their feud. This gesture came after Musk attended a White House dinner with Saudi Arabian Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
The post garnered significant attention, with over 51 million views, sparking discussions on Musk’s surprising change of stance. Previously, Musk had made controversial remarks about Trump, alleging his involvement in the Epstein Files, which had not been disclosed to the public.
The rift between Musk and Trump had been brewing since Trump’s presidency, with reported clashes between the two. Musk had criticized Trump’s policies, particularly the “Big Beautiful Bill,” expressing his strong disapproval on social media.
Despite their past disagreements, Musk announced the launch of the American Party to challenge Republicans, prompting a response from Trump, who questioned Musk’s actions and hinted at potential consequences for the naturalized US citizen.
However, in recent months, Musk and Trump were seen together at a memorial event for right-wing activist Charlie Kirk, where they briefly interacted, indicating a potential reconciliation in their relationship.
