At around the four minute mark Trump infers Musk is upset and trashing the BBB because it cuts the EV mandate. Not good. Looks like a real falling out. He keeps going on about Musk’s TDS.

Trump says he wants and is honored by all the Chinese students coming over. No mention that they by Chinese law are all obligated to spy and/or otherwise serve the CCP while over here.

I happened to watch that part and Trump was very critical of Elon Musk now. I can just imagine what Elon will be Tweeting back. Sad to see this relationship deteriorating like it has.

If Trump did spend any time with the German Chancellor trashing Musk, then that is one piss poor sign of bad diplomacy.

Stick to the script.

Is it 24 hours yet? How about that no tax on SS? Musk has TDS? Weekly BS threats to Iran, Russia, Ukraine, China that are proven BS weekly. Oh yeah, the Big Beautiful promise to hold the Russiagate, Scamdemic, J6 felons accountable? A lie is a lie, just like the lies you tell yourself about this.

“I happened to watch that part and Trump was very critical of Elon Musk now. I can just imagine what Elon will be Tweeting back.”

***********

Elon Musk undertook the DOGE project in good faith, assuming that it would lead to a change in the spending mindset that afflicts DC at all levels. Now that’s its becoming clear that DOGE’s work was not being taken seriously (basically used as a PR stunt) its no wonder that Musk is feeling used.

He NEVER knows when to shut up! Musk is gone now. What an incredible resource to trash and discard. No Musk, no second term.

Just like RFK Jr .. Trump does NOT agree with the things he stands for.

But we was hired to do a job that they agree on.

Elon is not, and never had been, a friend of the right.

Really? He actually said that?
I wonder if he is actually aware of the two that have been arrested trying to smuggle in bio weapon grade materials the other day. Agroterrorist.

I dont know. Somethings not right.

I got no problem with Trump trashing Musk.

Trump is obliged to put up some defense for this stinking “process” as there is no other process to serve as an alternative.

I am indebted to Musk.

Simply freeing up Twitter from the Deep State was as great a public service to the Republic as any member of the legislative branch has ever done especially the ones who have held office for decades.

But Musk had a limited shelf life working “inside the tent” or working inside any tent for that matter.

His criticism is well taken and much needed.

I will repeat, he is urinating on the tent while outside the tent unlike those Kentucky low lifes like Paul and Massie who keep urinating on the tent from the inside.

Not at all, it is an honest response, and Musk most likely is upset that it hinders EVs. It's not TDS by Musk, but rather he probably feels betrayed by Trump. But Musk must learn that Trump's goal is not to enrich Musk, but the citizens & the nation. It meeting just concluded it's public portion, and if I have any advice for Trump it is to stop referring to the price of eggs, and talk about other things, like lowering the costs of medications, increasing the amount of energy which has lowered prices, bringing in trillions that can be used to create income generators for the nation & citizens to let the people know how he is fighting for them that have a far bigger impact than his lowering of the price of eggs which is rapidly becoming not only insignificant but unimportant. He also needs to counter the narrative being formulated by a small cabal in the Senate who are wrongly representing or omitting the possibilities that the BBB (Big Beautiful Bill) really offers. The true conservatives have offered up cuts that are clearly not benefitting this nation, and they rejected all of those cuts. Thus, they are not concerned in anything but how to hamper Trump. They only care about their petty little victories, than they do about this nation or the people.

Agree. All this airing of personal dirty-laundry looks petty and vindictive.

As you noted, China means us nothing but harm. So why did Trump say what he did?

Here’s the best spin I can put on that: Trump is deliberately muddying the waters to keep the ChiComs guessing.

The downside to such a strategy is that it bigly confuses his supporters.

Musk was Tweeting about the national debt bankrupting our country before he became a member of the Trump team. I believe that’s still his focus.
