Online outbursts from celebrities and rich people are never pretty, and one of the ugliest online meltdowns right now is happening between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. The Tesla billionaire has accused the president of something nasty and potentially damning; supporters and fans of the Elon Musk/Donald Trump partnership are torn on which side to take.
Earlier this week, Elon Musk took to X/Twitter to casually (and impulsively) drop a secret he supposedly knows about the US President, in which he brazenly stated that Trump is in the “Epstein Files” and that’s one of the reasons why the files were never fully publicized. Here’s the screenshot in case the tweet gets deleted:
For the record, Epstein Files refer to the documents related to known sex offender and state-level prostitution convict, Jeffrey Epstein. These files include the names of celebrities, politicians, and businessmen related to him and his criminal circle including both victims, associates, and abusers.
For the record, Musk hasn’t exactly stated where Trump is categorized in the Epstein files, though many people have assumed that the business mogul is certainly not a victim. Musk ended the post with an ominous and rather threatening promise that the truth about Trump will come out in the near future. This outburst comes a week after the Tesla billionaire parted ways with the Trump administration, quitting the DOGE role.
Supporters are Wailing Right Now
In light of the most recent (and ongoing) Elon Musk outburst regarding Donald Trump, hordes of supporters have declared emotional distress and sadness over the matter. One PatriotRose17 even tweeted in a highly-liked reply, begging the Tesla CEO to “Stop it Elon!! Stop it! I love you both! This is making people really sad!”
While many have found humor in PatriotRose17’s post, others have taken it seriously, with many still apparently in denial about Elon Musk’s stance– even assuming that the tech billionaire’s account somehow got hacked or that he’s not himself. Others were assuming that it might be some kind of “big brain move” to bait the Epstein files out in the open.
Of course, those who weren’t fond of the Musk-Trump partnership were more than happy to see their covenant fall apart and even made fun of PatriotRose17’s exaggerated reaction because she reminded them of a kid frowning at her fighting parents.
At the moment, Musk continues to imply certain negative associations about Trump and has practically widened the rift between himself and the president:
