Within a year of the election, will Trump publicly disparage Elon Musk?

This could be for any reason, provoked or otherwise. Things like belittling nicknames and personal insults would count, or "I never liked him anyway" type statements.

As this might be somewhat subjective, I won't trade.

55 mins ago: ELON MUSK MADE DIRECT APPEALS TO TRUMP TO REVERSE TARIFFS PER WASHINGTON POST. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/04/07/musk-trump-tariffs/

@bobhenry First time I've ever seen anyone refer to Milton Friedman as "conservative".

bought Ṁ50 NO

Trump has already placed a lot of reputational stock in his support of Musk (enabling DOGE, Special Advisor status, hosting him in the Oval Office, publicly supporting Tesla...). With Musk's money and Trump's political power, their relationship is mutually beneficial and I don't see either one disparaging the other this early in the new administration.

Define "the election". Trump has been in three elections (not including primaries).

Personally I think if he leaves soon without it happening the probability becomes much much less likely: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2025/04/02/trump-musk-leaving-political-liability-00265784

@Balasar Seems like it's going to be an amicable breakup

@TimothyBandors "The president is pleased with Elon Musk, but the decision comes as the tech mogul increasingly looks like a political liability." I'll be the first to say I will be shocked if this resolves NO but its looking like its headed that way.

Nah

@skibidist lolololol

@skibidist the president never lies in ALL CAPS. It's cruise control for TRUTH.

@MartinRandall the funniest part about this is that barely anyone was talking about what the Cabinet thinks about Musk. By tweeting this he basically confirmed that at least a couple of people are already tired of his BS.

Some thoughts from the high human capital guru

sold Ṁ321 YES

@skibidist paywall, but I’ve just been thinking about how Trump ends up fighting with EVERYBODY. In retrospect, it’s really insane that Trump broke up with his 1st term VP. But because it’s Trump we don’t really think about it.
