I agree. It is a sign of healthy independence to disagree at times and hopefully come together when we can’t afford the division.

Without a doubt MAGA should support Musk. While erratic and often intemperate Musk has a brilliance about the future few can appreciate. He and Trump, with all of his intemperance, are a rare combination - neither captured by special interests. An alliance for the ages. Please do not allow those interests to divide us.

Musk & Trump are a good team. All close relationships go through a bad patch but mature intelligent people can push past and get on track. Musk is good for America. Trump is good for America. Keep the two together and more will get accomplished. Thanks Roger for writing a beneficial article...well they all are beneficial.

The answer is for Trump to apologize. Elon had every right to disagree with him about the big beautiful bill and DJ T instead of saying that, and just confirming that they disagree on this one topic, instead, DJ T insulted him personally. Elon’s personal insults didn’t start until after Trump went there. It is Trump’s fault. No excuse excuses.

I support DJ T today as much as I ever did and I am definitely a MAGA guy. But Trump needs to leave room for other strong-willed people to disagree with him on specific topics.

What I observed was Trump making it personal 1st.

Elon criticized the thinking, and the actions, but not the person.

Trump criticized Elon w/personal insults (tmrstger than sticking to the issues).

YES! Elon was quick to fire back w/insults, but it was retaliatory.

I voted for Trump 3 times & would again if allowed). But he need to start biting his tongue when it’s friendly fire. He needs to keep the good ones on his side.

So on this point, we disagree. Maybe they can learn from us & say it respectfully!

Trump has never apologized to anyone or admitted his mistakes or faults as any moral person would do.

How many times has he been wrong? He is always proven correct after the truth and facts are revealed. Like the false, 2017 "fine people" fabrication taken out of context, that the lefty political rags admitted five years later was wrongly spun. Ya got nothing, lil Tommy. Dems are the morally bankrupt cretins.

Spoken as a cultist. I've seen cults, they are terrible in what they demand of their members; as far as I'm concerned every cult is on the edge of destruction as they lack integrity, "scruples" and conscience; Trump has neither as Epstein said so pithily.

Congress writes laws, not the President. Trump can always use his leverage to push for rescission or to hold up spending packages in the future. But for now, Trump played the hand he was dealt, and probably felt (correctly) that Musk's criticism was unfair and unrealistic.

Trump has 53 republican Senators and something like a 4 seat majority in the House. If we'd had clean and honest elections, Republicans would have over 70 Senate seats and a 100 seat majority in the House. If Trump had those type of majorities and still couldn't cut spending more than he did, THEN Musk would have a point.

Why was FDR able to make so many sweeping changes to the federal government? Because he had a super majority in Congress for 10 years! Trump barely has a majority in either chamber.

Bottomline: Corrupt elections are the source of almost every major problem in the United States right now. Without correcting that, the downfall of the United States is almost guaranteed, sooner or later. Trump is 100% correct to be like a dog on a bone with that issue, especially when so many others (including Musk at times) are not.

POTUS Trump does not need help with choices or making decisions. He has done a fine job for the country on his own. Elon does not have DJT's ability when it come to running a country, the most powerful in the world. Elon is a science guy. That's a different lane altogether. The numbers-crunching he did for DOGE was fine, but there's more to running a nation than numbers.

Friends can have differences. Friends can have fights. It doesn't mean they can't become friends again. Praying for Elon Musk and Trump to put their differences aside🙏

I totally agree!!

Elon was upset he worked hard at getting the republicans the house and senate!! So Trump would not have any roadblocks! Mush invested a lot of his. Money and time to MAGA!

Trump is wrong Elon also was under constant attackes and his business!

What did Trump do to help him!

Elon didn’t know the republicans attack their own and many were going to block a lot of what Trump promised!

That’s why Elon was so made he learned a hard lesson of how crooked a lot of republicans are!

They dont protect their president like the democrats do!

I’m disgusted with a lot of the republicans and will not vote for republicans this midterm unless I know what they really stand for!!

Elon is right about starting another party!!

God bless you Elon!

We want Elon back for a lot of reasons. Mainly because we loved when he was part of the Trump family. And…..there’s little X 🥰

Elon is awesome. They had their little spat real or contrived. I might be crazy but I think that whole blow up was a way to get everyone off Elons back and stop destroying his cars and dealerships. Maybe, maybe not but when was the last time someone keyed a Tesla? Think about it.
