Washington: The ongoing feud between tech billionaire Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump has intensified further. After Trump launched a fresh attack on ‘Truth Social’, criticising Musk for floating a third ‘America Party’, the Tesla CEO responded on X, sarcastically stating that he had never heard of the social media platform.
Musk’s response on X came after a user shared a screenshot of Donald Trump’s long Truth Social rant against his former ally.
“What’s Truth Social?” Musk wrote.
In another post, he added, “Never heard of it”.
Trump calls Musk a “train wreck”
In his post, Trump called Musk a “train wreck” who had gone “completely off the rails” over the “past five weeks”. Trump posted on his Truth Social platform, saying, “I am saddened to watch Elon Musk go completely ‘off the rails,” essentially becoming a TRAIN WRECK over the past five weeks. He even wants to start a Third Political Party, despite the fact that they have never succeeded in the United States – The System seems not designed for them.”
The US President further added that third parties only lead to “total disruption and chaos” and Washington has “enough of that with the Radical Left Democrats, who have lost their confidence and their minds!”
Trump added that Musk is unhappy because the bill scraps the EV Mandate, which takes away green-energy credits for Tesla’s electric vehicles. “Republicans, on the other hand, are a smooth running “machine,” that just passed the biggest Bill of its kind in the History of our Country. It is a Great Bill but, unfortunately for Elon, it eliminates the ridiculous Electric Vehicle (EV) Mandate, which would have forced everyone to buy an Electric Car in a short period of time,” he added.
