The Feud is Real! Trump crushes ‘peace talk’ hopes with Musk as he insists Elon has ‘lost his mind’ and ‘vows to get rid of his Tesla’

DONALD Trump has squashed any hopes of reconciling with Elon Musk after the pair was said to plan a “peace call” as he reportedly vowed to get rid of his Tesla.
The world has been watching the nuclear feud unfold after Elon fired off outlandish claims about Jefferey Epstein and made brutal impeachment calls.
Trump is reportedly looking to sell the Tesla he bought from Musk in March
It was initially thought to have been agreed by both men, but on Friday morning, Trump said that ship had sailed.
“You mean the man who has lost his mind?” Trump told ABC News when asked about the reported phone call.
The president explained that Musk was ready to chat, but said that he was “not particularly” interested in speaking.

After making this remark, it was also reported that Trump is looking to sell his red Tesla that he purchased in front of reporters outside the White House lawn, according to Fox News.
Vice President JD Vance also waded into the drama and defended his boss against the “many lies the corporate media tells about President Trump.”
“One of the most glaring is that he’s impulsive or short-tempered,” Vance wrote on X.
“Anyone who has seen him operate under pressure knows that’s ridiculous.”
The president’s flattening remarks came after a White House source revealed that no call is expected to take place anytime soon.
Multiple administration officials have tried to reach out to Musk and his representatives, but their calls have all been ignored, several sources told ABC News.
The two powerful men had been close allies for the best part of a year since Musk sided with Trump during the 2024 US presidential election.
But their impending breakup came over the weekend when Musk stepped away from his governmental duties with the Department of Government Efficiency.
Trump gave his friend a touching send off in a final Oval Office interview which was overshadowed by Musk’s peculiar black eye.
But ever since, their relationship has taken a steep and sour turn.
Trump soon responded and sparked a very public fallout between the pair which came tit for tat attacks on social media Thursday.
The worst of it came from Musk who called for the president’s impeachment and made unfounded allegations about Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
Musk claimed that Trump is withholding the infamous Epstein files due to his name appearing in them.
Despite the remark there is no evidence that Trump had any involvement in convicted sex offender Epstein’s crimes.
Trump hit back on Truth Social saying Elon was “wearing thin” and that the president had to ask him to leave the White House.
He went on to say that the US government could end all federal contracts with Musk’s companies if the insults continued to fly.
Trump described the possible move as a money saving measure.
Musk even said the 2024 US election, which Trump won by a landslide, was thanks to his support.
The debate quickly dragged in other pivotal US figures with White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt saying Musk was having an “unfortunate episode”.
Despite going on the commenting spree targeting the governmental bill and Trump’s presidency, Musk did appear to be open to a reconciling.
American billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman sent out a message urging both men to make up for the good of the US.
He personally tweeted at Musk and Trump saying: “We are much stronger together than apart.”
Musk replied to the message by saying: “You’re not wrong.”
Trump is yet to publicly speak on if he believes there is a way back for the pair.
But he did tell Politico in a phone call that everything is “going very well, never done better”.
How did Musk and Trump’s relationship crumble?
ELON Musk and Donald Trump spent Thursday launching insults on social media as their relationship quickly went sour.
The Tesla owner called for Trump’s impeachment as the president hit back and warned the government could end all federal contracts with Musk’s companies. Here’s how it went down:
On Tuesday, Musk tweeted that Trump’s signature “big beautiful” spending bill was a “disgusting abomination” that would add billions to the federal deficit
On Thursday in the Oval Office, Trump addressed Musk’s criticism of the bill and accused Musk of trying to kill it because the bill ends federal subsidies for electric vehicles
Musk responded by live-posting on X as Trump spoke, initially shrugging off the president’s assessment with an unbothered “Whatever,” before tearing into the bill’s other spending provisions
Trump escalated the feud after the Oval Office meeting with multiple posts on Truth Social, saying he told Musk to leave the White House instead of continuing to work with Doge and threatening to dump Musk’s federal contracts, which are worth billions
Musk fired back on X by saying he was “decommissioning” the Dragon spacecraft made by SpaceX that brought the stranded Nasa astronauts back from the International Space Station in March
Musk also escalated the war of words by reposting and replying “Yes” to a tweet claiming that Trump should be impeached and replaced by Vice President JD Vance
Musk further fanned the flames by claiming that Trump is named in the infamous “Epstein files” and making unfounded accusations that its the reason they haven’t been released to the public.
He added that despite Musk’s popularity with voters, the president’s favorability ratings have continued to go “through the roof”.
Trump is currently embroiled in several emergency peace talks across the globe.
He has been urgently looking to end the war in Ukraine since entering office in January by keeping both Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin on side.
The president also held a crunch phone call with China’s Xi Jinping on Thursday.
