The president of the United States, Donald Trumpagain criticized on Tuesday (1st) the billionaire ELON MUSKeven recommending that the Government Efficiency Department (Doge) analyze the incentives received by their companies. “Elon may be more subsidies than any human being in history from afar, and without these subsidies, he would probably have to close his doors and return to South Africa,” Trump wrote on his own social network, Truth Social.

Trump’s latest criticism against his former ally, an important donor of the republican campaign and even recently counselor of the government, comes in the wake of the budget proposal that the president wants to approve before Friday-an initiative that, according to Musk, would increase US debt. In his message, Trump warned Musk that if the subsidies were over, they would also end “the launches of rockets, satellites and the production of electric cars, and our country would save a fortune.”

“Maybe we should ask the doge to take a good look at that? There is a lot of money to save money!” He added. “Elon Musk knew, long before I vehemently supported myself to president, that I was strongly opposed to the mandate of electric vehicles. It’s ridiculous, and it has always been an important part of my campaign. Electric cars are great, but not everyone should be forced to have one,” Trump commented. The American president reacted like this after Elon Musk warned the Republican legislators on Monday that they “lose their primaries next year” support the mega-or-or-a-laws and Trump’s taxpayer.

“All members of the congress who campaigned to cut government spending and immediately voted for the biggest increase in the debt in history should be ashamed. And you will lose your primaries next year, even if it’s the last thing you do on Earth,” wrote the South African billionaire. The Senate is immersed in the process of amendments to the budget initiative, which contains key elements of Trump’s agenda, such as tax and spending cuts and increased immigration defense and control financing, but it is unclear whether republican senators will support the measure.
