US EditionMusk Favorability Among Republicans Drops After Trump Feud: Poll
- A Quinnipiac poll conducted June 5-9, 2025, found Elon Musk's favorability among Republicans fell to 62%, amid a public feud with President Trump.
- The decline followed Musk's vocal opposition to Trump's spending bill and a messy falling-out that escalated into a social media war of words last week.
- Despite the slide, 80% of Republicans in early June rated Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency efforts as excellent or good, though about 30% hold an unfavorable view of Tesla.
- Musk acknowledged on X that some posts about Trump 'went too far' and expressed regret, while others like Alabama Republican Katye Long noted their feelings toward him have cooled but remain somewhat favorable.
- The poll and ongoing backlash suggest Musk’s association and recent clashes with Trump contributed to diminishing enthusiasm among Republicans and increased negative views of Tesla.
