Musk says Trump would have lost 2024 election without him as ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ feud continues

Elon Musk and President Donald Trump’s feud about the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ continued on Thursday when the tech billionaire responded to the president’s criticism in a post on X.

‘Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate. Such ingratitude,’ Musk wrote in a post responding to Trump’s remarks about him.

While speaking with reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said that he was ‘very disappointed’ by Musk’s vocal criticisms of the bill. The president claimed that Musk knew what was in the bill and ‘had no problem’ with it until the EV incentives had to be cut.

‘I’m very disappointed because Elon knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody sitting here, better than you people. He knew everything about it. He had no problem with it,’ Trump said. ‘All of a sudden, he had a problem. And he only developed the problem when he found out that we’re going to have to cut the EV mandate.’

Musk pushed back on the president’s claim in another post on X and said that ‘this bill was never shown to me even once and was passed in the dead of night so fast that almost no one in Congress could even read it!’

The Tesla founder has been a vocal critic of the Trump administration and Republicans over the last few days because of the legislation that the president has pushed. Musk has taken to calling it the ‘Big Ugly Bill’ and at one point advocated for a ‘Slim Beautiful Bill.’

Earlier on Thursday, Musk highlighted Trump’s old posts that seemingly align with the tech billionaire’s current positions and objections to the Big Beautiful Bill. 

Musk has also faced criticism from House Speaker Mike Johnson, who said on Wednesday that he was ‘surprised’ by the former DOGE leader’s objections to the legislation. The Republican lawmaker said that he and Musk, whom he considers a ‘friend,’ had a ‘great conversation’ about the bill on Monday. Johnson told reporters on Wednesday that Musk was ‘flat wrong’ about the legislation.

Meanwhile, there are several Republicans who have expressed solidarity with Musk, including Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah. Additionally, Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., said that Musk was right to be concerned that AMericans are ‘quickly becoming debt slaves.’

Now that the bill has passed the house, it’s up to the Senate to meet Trump’s July 4 deadline.
