Build-up to a blow-up: Inside the Trump-Musk meltdown

  • President Trump is planning a massive military parade in Washington next Saturday marking the US Army's 250th anniversary on his 79th birthday.
  • The parade and his unexpected Sunday retreat at Camp David aim to shift focus from his escalating public dispute with Elon Musk.
  • Musk, whose businesses earned $6.3 billion in government contracts this year, criticized Trump's tax-and-spending bill, prompting Trump to hint at canceling Musk's federal contracts.

  • This feud risks undermining Republican unity ahead of 2024 elections and may influence lawmakers' support while Trump tries to reduce Musk's influence using presidential powers.
