Trump’s Deportation Warning To Elon Musk, Close Up Shop And Move Back To Africa
New Delhi : US President Donald Trump claimed that Elon Musk received more subsidies than any human being in history and without it, he might have to close shop and head back home to South Africa as the feud between the duo escalated over the tax bill. Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa, Trump posted on Truth Social.
No more rocket launches, satellites, or electric car production, and our country would save a fortune. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? Big money to be saved!!!” he said. At the centre of the feud between Trump and Musk is the concern that the bill would end the popular $7,500 consumer tax credit for electric vehicles. This will make EVs more expensive – a fact that has got the Tesla CEO charged up. Trump said he had always opposed the electric vehicle (EV) mandate, a Joe Biden-era policy that he called ridiculous and a central part of his campaign.
It is ridiculous, and was always a major part of my campaign. Electric cars are fine, but not everyone should be forced to own one, the US President further said. In a swift clapback, Musk dared the US President to follow through on his threat on subsidies. I am literally saying CUT IT ALL. Now,” he tweeted. Musk, once a close aide of Trump, has been at loggerheads with the President for the past month over the $4 trillion spending and tax bill. He ratcheted up the rhetoric on Monday, threatening to form a new “America Party” if the bill cleared the Senate.
