Gentlemen, one and all, and ladies... Never again on the pages of this forum do I want to see a rift between two adult heterosexual men referred to as a "breakup". Don't do it. |

Same here. I think it's also even odds that they might also be on the same team and good pals by lunch next Tuesday. You never know with people this driven and wired for success. Either way, I'm not worried about it. This is all has a WWF coordinated sideshow distraction type feeling to it.

Step by step walk the thousand mile road
| There are lots of photos of Epstein and others, including Trump. Of course the FBI has a copy of images with Trump in their files. I’m wondering if Trump and Musk are pulling a maskirovka op with the alleged fall out. I mean, if ever you wanted to embarrass the media, this is how.

Get Off My Lawn
| ^^^^^^^^ I was going to post something similar- this "feud" smells funny. These men have been very close for maybe a year, Musk has been everywhere with Trump, their families close, and I can't believe a friendship like this can collapse overnight over something like the BBB. This Epstein file shit is clumsy, a joke; if Trump was truly connected with it, Biden, Obama and Democrats, all had access to the files, would have been all over it like white on rice. I'm going out on a limb, but this may be a tactic by both men to affect things within the world of Musk and Trump, what that might be is a guess.

They would be justified in doing so. Now for me, in my mid 60's, I was alive for most of that debt accrual. So I can't say it wasn't related to me. But my grandchildren would have every right to say they are not morally obligated by their grandparents' debts. Just as they aren't responsible to pay my mortgage when I die. |

| Strange feud. Musk isn't wrong, but he's acting like he doesn't understand politics. I think the big problem with Musk is that he's kind of an immature guy. No reason at all that he needed to go all scorched earth. I don't think Trump is capable of not responding to an attack. We need to get this tamped down PDQ. |

| If Elon says enough nasty things about Trump, he'll become a hero to the left again. That's likely a good business decision for him. |

Maybe Elon wanted a hard and dramatic break. Possibly it could take some pressure off Tesla and Elon personally and make him able to move in some of the circles he used to. I doubt if Elon is slow on the uptake about anything, but I suppose he could have always imagined the EV mandates would stay. |

| I’m wondering if this isn’t a bit of misdirection that Trump is so good at. Time will tell. |

You’re not wrong but I think both Trump and Musk are both right and wrong. Musk is approaching it from the practical perspective with no regard to the politics. Trump is approaching it from the practical perspective well aware of the politics. |
