Trump scuppers idea of calling Musk after row, may ditch Tesla—
US President Donald Trump has no plans to speak to billionaire Elon Musk and may even ditch his red Tesla car, the White House said Friday after a stunning public divorce fraught with risk for both men.
Trump’s camp insisted that he wanted to move on from the row with the South African-born Musk, with officials telling AFP that the tech tycoon had requested a call but that the president was not interested.
The Republican instead intended to focus on getting the US Congress to pass his “big, beautiful” spending bill — Musk’s harsh criticisms of which had triggered the astonishing meltdown on Thursday.
