Vance Criticizes Musks Feud with Trump as Huge Mistake

Vice President JD Vance has criticized Elon Musk for his public dispute with President Donald Trump, calling it a “huge mistake” for Musk to “go after the president.” Speaking on “This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von,” Vance expressed his concerns about the escalating feud between Musk and Trump, which began after Musk criticized Trump’s spending bill as a “disgusting abomination.”

Vance acknowledged Musk’s right to his opinion but emphasized the potential negative impact of the conflict between two influential figures. He highlighted Musk’s status as one of the world’s wealthiest and most transformational entrepreneurs and Trump’s position as a powerful leader, suggesting that their feud could be detrimental to the country.

Trump initially held back but later responded during a White House event, expressing disappointment in Musk and accusing him of ingratitude. The situation escalated further as Musk posted a series of critical messages on X, leading to threats from Trump to cut Musk’s government contracts. Despite the heated exchange, both Musk and Trump appeared to soften their tones by the end of the week, with Trump wishing Musk well on Air Force One and Musk reciprocating the sentiment.
