US EditionTrump Signals He’s Done with Musk
- On June 6, 2025, President Donald Trump stated he has no plans to speak with Elon Musk and announced a review of Musk's federal contracts from the White House.

- Trump also threatened to cut Musk's government subsidies and contracts and indicated he might sell the red Tesla Model S he bought in March, signaling a breakdown in their previously close relationship.
- Tesla's stock fell 14.3%, losing about $150 billion in value after the feud intensified, although it rebounded 5.83% later the same week on NASDAQ amid Musk’s ongoing criticisms and social media exchanges.
- The dispute suggests potential strain on Musk’s businesses, including SpaceX contracts, and poses challenges for Republican unity ahead of upcoming elections given their public conflict.
