I feel he knew all along. Elon isn't a super genius but he is also not stupid. He played Trump like a fiddle to get what he wants.

The EV tax credit was already known to be taken away. Thats the electric vehicle thing hes talking about. Along with the future goals.

The government contracts are about SpaceX which is where most of Elons wealth is tied up in. Popcorn!

The divide is interesting. Conservatives think federal agencies don't do anything for them so they agree with Elon wanting to gut them but they also agree with Trump because he wants to deport all who aren't white.

I don't think they're going to turn on Trump any time soon but I really think they would happily elect a president Musk.

they are also scared of both

Elon has too much money and can really hurt their campaigns
My cousin is the biggest Trump dick rider I've ever seen. Even though he absolutely hates electric cars, he would talk about how Elon is a genius and defend him at every turn (doge, nazi salute, any dumb thing he says).

But now that they're fighting, I can't wait for him to say how awful Elon is. That's just how the fan base is, Trumps opinions are their opinions (they're not sheep or in a cult though, never).

I'm just surprised it happened this quickly; I expected a solid year of them fucking everything up before the bad breakup.
Why? elon's role was always going to be temporary unless congress acted to make doge an actual government agency. Which wasn't going to happen, this was always going to be a couple of months of pretending to be nice with trump throwing him under the bus at the end of doges existence.

Its always funny to see them squirm when new bad information comes out. At first there like well maybe Trump shouldnt of done that. Then Fox tells them what to think and they are back in line.
Trying is the first step towards failure, so just dont give it a shot and you cant dissapoint.
It's not good if Trump nukes SpaceX like this.

That would be the end of Dragon ISS resupply, crewed Dragon as our main space vehicle, Starlink launches on Falcon 9, cellular Starlink, military Starlink, basically the entirety of the Starship plans for Artemis 3 and the lunar landing.

And there's no good alternatives yet from competitors.

This is why we shouldn't have been cutting NASA funding for SpaceX contracts.

Them butting heads was inevitable. Trump's ego will always come out on top. Hopefully Musk brings him down with him.
Less is more. Everything you want, isn't everything you need.
If Elon wanted to get out of politics because he thought Democrats were mean to him holy shit he's in for a ride.

I suppose Trump could just...nationalize SpaceX?

I dont mind Elon turning against me, but he should have done so months ago. This is one of the Greatest Bills ever presented to Congress. Its a Record Cut in Expenses, $1.6 Trillion Dollars, and the Biggest Tax Cut ever given. If this Bill doesnt pass, there will be a 68% Tax Increase, and things far worse than that. I didnt create this mess, Im just here to FIX IT. This puts our Country on a Path of Greatness. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

In light of the Presidents statement about cancellation of my government contracts,
@SpaceX
will begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft immediately
Say what you will about sleepy Joe, this shit didn't happen in his white house. But I know the deflection will be since this is public on social media it is transparent. And we like transparency!

They will recover quickly when Trump/Fox News shits the next installment of right wing propaganda into their empty skulls.

Perhaps when the recession actually hits and these wingnuts are among the newly unemployed they might get a clue, but even then the odds are against it.

It's just a performance until Trump actually goes through with canceling (or trying to cancel) Musk's contracts.

Remember Musk had that black eye from what was almost certainly being punched in the eye-socket last Friday. I suspect this is a legitimate falling out.

It usually takes a minute for them to lock the subreddit down when something juicy happens.

I know this was the most predictable breakup of all time, but that really hasnt taken any of the entertainment value away.

I am disappointed in how Elon is handling this, I expect this type of behavior from the left or a child. Sure the bill is not amazing but that's a fight you have behind closed doors not on social media.
There are no winners in airing out dirty laundry. This only serves to hurt everyone's credibility and further divide our people. If Elon's claims are true then it can be assumed Elon didn't mind hiding stuff until he no longer stood to benefit, if its not then its even worse. It will remain a black eye for both Elon and Trump and ultimately the truth of the matter will remain unclear.
Personal grievances aside, Elon'sinability to properly handle adversity will hurt the Republican Party while strengthening the opposition.
