Elon Musk just hit the brakes on his fiery clash with former U.S. President Donald Trump, admitting some social media posts "went too far" in a late-night X (formerly Twitter) apology. 🛑 The SpaceX CEO’s sudden U-turn comes after weeks of explosive claims, including unproven allegations about Trump’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
"I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week," Musk wrote early Wednesday. The tech mogul’s rift with Trump—whom he once spent millions to support—has sparked concerns about backlash against his companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, which rely heavily on government contracts. 💼
Trump fired back Sunday, telling NBC he’s done repairing ties and warning of "serious consequences" if Musk aids Democrats. Meanwhile, Musk’s deleted Epstein-related post contrasts with other Trump-criticizing tweets still live, like his roast of a spending bill as an "abomination." 🤯
With Musk’s political influence waning and Trump threatening contract cuts, the drama raises big questions: Can billionaires afford viral feuds? And what’s next for tech’s most controversial CEO? 🔥
