Elon lashed out because he is a bipolar autistic, who couldn’t handle politics. Trump is the master and Elon gradually (actually quite quickly as it is not even a week lol) coming back into the fold. His most useful application for Trump is Elon tweeting positively about what trunp is doing and saying, which he is now doing.

It seems very weird.
Musk was very angry, now he is like, hey good job with the riots, maybe we can be friends again.
My personal theory is Musk Is obviously a business genius, but obviously messed up emotionally and as a person. He saw Trump as a friend, said he loved him. He might never have had a friend before. Trump creates a bill that adds millions to the deficit, but no room for Musk's EV's in it.
Does seem like Musk got his feelings hurt. He couldn't handle it and went nuts.

I also think the fact that almost no one took his side played a part.
Rogan is much closer to Elon than he is to Trump, and his immediate response was that Elon needs his phone taken away.
He probably imagined that his tech friends like David Sacks and the All In guys would side with him, as well as Rogan. They didn't. They either stayed silent or expressed shock at how absurd Elon's accusation was.

Yea, just sucks how politics is, Trump lashed out a lot, even against republicans during his first term, still does.
With just this 9 billion DOGE recession they are trying now, they already have at least one establishment Republican, Don bacon, saying he will be a no. Why? Because he is older, knows that if he gets primaried, he likely will be able to get a lobbying job. Him publically saying no, may let him take all the flak from the MAGA base, so a few other no votes can slip in under the radar to kill it.
They desperately hope they can just wait trump out and then when he is gone they can go back to being uniparty yes men who vote for any and everything they can put in the budget. Then they go back to their districts and cry democrats spend too much, say they will fix it, donate to me. Such a scam.
the big bill having all these potential DOGE cuts, would never pass
probably. He realized he doesn’t have near the political influence he thought he did. He told people to call up congress to complain about the bill, but rumors are that basically no one called in, republicans even laughing at how few people called in.
The people Elon brought in aren’t interested in politics enough to put in that effort. Where as when someone like Bannon says to call in, the switch board is basically shut down from people calling in.
Also, at the same time Elon was melting down, Stephen Miller was putting out tweets, videos of interviews, explaining why the cuts are not in the bill, along with how the bill will reduce the deficit, etc. and as smart as Elon is, miller is very smart and a way better communicator. I def trust miller over musk on political strategy. Or Bessent over Musk on economics
Along with it coming out the NASA guy was a big democrat donor. After all the times Trump has been betrayed by those in the GOP, his admin, etc, he would never appoint a dem donor.

The normalization of this is truly insane. What yhe fuck are you Americans even doing anymore?
You have two billionaire narcissists exchanging barbs via their own social media platforms - that's already fucking ridiculous. But the content of this exchange is just out-in-the-open abject corruption. Trump threatening to cut contracts due to purely retribution/spite, Elon being upset that government subsidies are not being offered back to him in exchange for his lavish political donations....
What the fuck guys? This is USSR levels of absolute corruption.
We are fucking cooked. This isn't even 6 months in.

Trump Is Getting Rid of His Tesla After Musk Broke His Heart
President Donald Trump is getting rid of the Tesla he bought in March in a show of solidarity with Elon Musk.
The president had agreed to let the Tesla chief hold a demo on the South Lawn after protesters angry about DOGE cuts vandalized dealerships across the country.
Now that the two have had a major falling out over the president’s “big beautiful” budget bill, the red Tesla Model S with Florida plates parked on West Executive Drive will either be given away or sold, according to Fox News reporter Peter Doocy.
The Daily Beast has reached out to the White House for comment.

It's transparent corruption. This is pathetic - whataboutism after whataboutism.
My shit does smell yes, but I'm not systematically breaking down the constitution and ushering in a technofascist state. That my bowel movements don't smell like roses in no way precludes me from rendering an opinion on blatant corruption and the marked downgrading of the United States into something more terrifying than pathetic - posters like you being situated squarely in the pathetic boot licking sycophant area of the pathetic portion.
Threatening to sever contracts that ostensibly are in the American public's interest, because of an online spat between two narcissistic billionaires each with their own social media empires is a new and should-be-alarming quantum leap forward in corruption. They aren't even bothering to hide it any more. You think this is somehow progress? the greasing of the palms over the table instead of under? You think this is all good and above board, this new guns a-blazin' presidency be executive order, diplomacy by tariff shakedown and inter-state engagement via threatening arrest and declaring an intend to "liberate" blue states?
Pathetic. I thought you right wing guys were all for small government? What ever happened to that? now you're all a bunch of bootlicking cheerleaders for cororate domination, strong-arm bully diplomacy and historically unrivaled levels of national debt.
We're cooked.

We've never in US history had this blatant, obscene level of corruption.
Never before in US history has a president used the office for such pathetically degrading personal enrichment EVER
Its supremely UNPRECEDENTED and disgraceful, and any attempt to compare it is a vapid attempt of normalization
