Donald Trump was not happy about Elon Musk's outburst over his Big, beautiful bill and he was confused why Elon dug up the issue after working so closely with the president for four months, the Wall Street Journal reported. The Trump administration was caught off guard by Musk's sudden offensive in which he called the bill 'abominable'.
While Donald Trump is pushing for the bill, Musk deployed his machinery to rally against the bill as he is posting incessantly about the bill and urging people to oppose it while he had given his inputs for the bill.
Speaker Mike Johnson plans to speak to Elon Musk over the bill Thursday morning, he told Bloomberg. “Elon is a good friend. We texted late last night. We’re going to talk this morning,” Johnson said. “He seems pretty dug in right now, and I can’t quite understand the motivation behind it.”
Elon Musk's outburst comes after he exited White House stepping down from his brainchild Department of Government Efficiency. Though Musk and Trump emphasized that Musk would remain an advisor of the administration, the timing of Musk's outburst again proved that he did not leave the administration on the best of term.

Insiders of the Trumpworld said there are specific reasons for Elon Musk's outburst. Musk is arguing that the bill will add $2.4 trillion to the federal deficit. But this is not his only issue. One insider said Musk exposed a bunch of waste and inefficiency with big contractors like Accenture but as Musk exited, Accenture got awarded massive new contracts and everything feels like business-as-usual after Musk's exit.
The
White House played down Elon Musk's outburst and said Trump was already aware of Musk's viewpoint but that did not change anything. Musk's grievances revolve around four specific issues, insiders claimed.
