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.
Trump also suggested that DOGE, the cost-cutting department that the Tesla CEO headed, should have a look at Musk’s government subsidies and contracts. The US President’s fiery post came as Musk renewed his criticism of Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful bill’ and promised to launch a new political outfit if it was passed.
“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.
