			I don't think Elon cares. He puts free speech before finances.

What's not to like is that the free money becomes outweighed by a decline in Starlink sales to Canada, Tesla sales in Democrat states and both in Europe threatening his time at the helm of these companies. 
 
So he's seen it's time to put some distance between him and Taco and lay off promoting AfD and other overseas right-wing parties whose values don't really align with Tesla's and get back to business.

		| After a flurry of posts from Elon Musk, US President Donald Trump has now taken to social media as well. 
 He wrote two posts on his own platform, Truth Social:
 
 "Elon was "wearing thin,” I asked him to leave, I took away his EV mandate that forced everyone to buy electric cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!" Trump writes.
 
 He then says that the "easiest way to save money" in his signature tax bill is to "terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts".

			So they have fallen out with each other, pretty much as many predicted they would.

			It was well known of Trumps intentions, drill drill drill baby etc. this falling out hasn't just happened. And Elon can't be in two places at once.

		| Elon Musk has dropped a bombshell accusation, claiming his former close friend Donald Trump appears in the Epstein files. 
 The claim was part of a spectacular war of words between the world’s most powerful men, with the president claiming the Tesla boss has “Trump derangement syndrome”, and Mr Musk insisting Mr Trump only won the election because of him.
 
 Mr Musk said in a post on X: “Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!”
