Elon Musk-Donald trump Controversy
The distance between Elon Musk and President donald trump in America has turned into a deep chasm. It started when Musk's close friend Jared Isaacman's name came up as the new nasa chief. Trump suddenly backed out from this name and said that he would announce some other name. This was a political setback for Musk because Isaacman's name was at the center of his space strategies.
Recently, Elon Musk also raised questions about US President Donald Trump's Big beautiful Bill. Due to this, he resigned from the DOGE department. However, Trump's opinion about the Big beautiful Bill is different. He has described it as a historic tax cut and necessary for the MAGA campaign. However, Musk called the Big beautiful Bill a Big Ugly Bill and said that this would increase the US deficit to $2.5 trillion.
President Trump's threat to Musk

After this statement, Musk also attacked trump and said that he would reveal many things related to the Epstein file. He wrote on X (formerly Twitter) that the time has come to drop a big bomb.
Donald Trump's name is in Epstein's files. That is why those files are not being made public. Mark this post for the future, the truth will come out. This statement was enough to create an uproar in American politics because Jeffrey Epstein's name has been associated with sexual crimes and high-profile connections.
Musk's new political party
After breaking off relations with trump, Musk has sought people's opinions on the idea of forming a new political party. This indicates that Musk is now not just a technocrat, but also wants to be a political leader. A glimpse of this was also seen when trump said during a meeting with the German Chancellor at the white house that I am very disappointed with Musk. I had helped him a lot. On this, Musk said that if I were not there, trump would have lost the election. He never showed gratitude.
However, amidst all this, trump is planning to end government contracts with companies like SpaceX, and Tesla, which can cause a big blow to Musk in the economy. Meanwhile, according to the New York Times report, Tesla's stocks have fallen drastically due to Trump's threat. There is an atmosphere of uncertainty and fear among investors.
