Musk says he will donate to Massie amid reignited Trump feud
- Elon Musk publicly supported Rep. Thomas Massie's 2026 reelection bid amid an escalating feud with President Donald Trump on July 1, 2025.
- This support came after the Senate approved Trump's controversial legislation involving tax reductions and government expenditures, a measure Massie opposed by describing it as a "debt bomb ticking."
- Musk condemned the bill as an irresponsible increase in spending and proposed creating a new political party if it is enacted, while Trump criticized Massie for opposing the bill and vowed to support an opponent in the primary.
- Musk replied "I will" to a user requesting support for Massie, who has been a vocal critic of the bill and advocates bipartisan war powers limits with Rep. Ro Khanna.
- Musk's backing underscores a deepening split with Trump and may influence the upcoming election, although Trump's endorsement could sway voters by up to 25 points against Massie.
