On June 7 local time, US President Trump said that if Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk fund Democratic candidates who oppose the Republican budget, they will face "very serious consequences."
Trump said: "If he does, he will pay for it." But he did not disclose specific measures. Trump added that he had no intention of repairing his relationship with Musk, "I think the relationship is over."
The two recently confronted publicly on social media over a Republican-led budget, and Trump said Musk "has great disrespectful to the presidency." Previously, Musk posted a post on social media platform X to criticize the large-scale tax and expenditure bill promoted by the US government, attacked Trump, and even forwarded content related to Geoffrey Epstein's old news, and then deleted it.
Trump responded that the allegations about Epstein were "old things" and denied that he was associated with it.
In addition, Trump has threatened his right to cancel government contracts and subsidies for Musk's companies, although no action has been taken on this. He stressed that the Republican Party has unprecedented unity and is optimistic about the successful passage of the budget.
