Musk Calls Trump’s Big Tax Break Bill A ‘Disgusting Abomination,’ Testing His Influence Over The GOP

(WFAA)

WASHINGTON (AP) — Elon Musk has blasted President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” of tax breaks and spending cuts as a “disgusting abomination.” The tech billionaire’s comments Tuesday test his own influence over the Trump-led Republican Party. Musk targeted Trump’s top congressional priority just days after the president gave him a celebratory Oval Office sendoff marking the end of Musk’s role leading the Department of Government Efficiency. Musk’s business interests stand to lose from Trump’s bill, which would slash funding for electric vehicles and related technologies.
