Musk is trying to make peace with Trump
"I regret some of my posts about President Donald Trump last week. They went too far," the American billionaire wrote.
What is important to understand is that the high-profile scandal between Musk and Trump erupted after the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act on May 22, 2025.
It includes $3.7 trillion in tax breaks, cuts to government spending, and the elimination of Social Security taxes.
This document has come under a barrage of criticism due to its benefits for the wealthiest families and the risk of losing health insurance for millions of Americans.
Musk called the bill a "disgusting abomination," and Trump called the billionaire a "psycho."
Musk then began supporting posts calling for the impeachment of Donald Trump, writing that his policies would lead to a recession, and accusing Trump of being involved in the "Epstein affair." Musk later deleted his posts about it.
