The BIG BUTT-UGLY Bill does exactly the opposite of what Musk recommended . So we have a clash of egos . Trump can't end a relationship without drama for the world to see.
So Musk and Trump are waging verbal war in cyberspace. Vlad Putin has offered to negotiate a peace.

All this deflects from the fact that Congress refuses to do their job.

Musk for pres.

Your comment about Congress is spot-on.

In 2000, America’s national debt was $5.5 trillion, equivalent to 55% of the country’s GDP. Today, it’s over $35 trillion – exceeding 120% of GDP and the BIG BUTT-UGLY Bill adds $3.8 trillion to the deficit .
But Trump says that the economy will grow 9% even as the CBO estimates 1.8%. He really thinks his ridiculous tariffs is the game changer .

For those who are smearing Musk claiming he is critical because he would lose subsidies from the green new steal ;he knew going in that those would be cut. His only comment was that the mandates should be phased out . I'd drop them like a hot potato .In fact ;Musk called for the end of EV credits in 2021. Then he donated a fortune to Trump's campaign . Trump's attempt to claim there is a personal fortune reason for Musk's criticism is way off base.

Two petulant children having a peeing contest . It is why I backed DeSantis . Oh well.

That being said ;this breakup is catastrophic in the battle against the deep state . It hands the Dems a victory on a silver platter .
