An intense public feud erupted this week between President Donald Trump
and his one-time ally, billionaire Elon Musk, with an argument about
Trump’s massive tax and domestic policy bill raging across social
media and in the Oval Office.
Tensions began rising on Tuesday, when what Trump calls his “big,
beautiful bill” as a “disgusting abomination,” surprising
Republican leaders.
But the billionaire escalated the fight on Thursday when he began
sharing years-old comments from Trump and other Republican lawmakers
raising concerns about US government spending and the deficit.
Throughout Thursday and Friday morning, Trump and other prominent
figures from the president and the tech leader’s respective orbits
joined in. Trump even raised the idea of terminating contracts the
government holds with Musk’s companies.
The dispute signals just how much and how quickly the relationship
between Trump and the world’s richest man has broken down because of
disagreement over the bill. Musk was, up until recently, a staunch
supporter of the president and near-constant figure in the White House.
In an from government work last week, Musk said he would remain “a
friend and an advisor” to the Trump administration.
Here’s a timeline of the first 72 hours of the feud:
This is a developing feud. The timeline will be updated with new
developments.
