In a plot twist straight out of a political soap opera, Elon Musk appears to be inching back toward former President Donald Trump, just days after publicly torching him online. Yes, you read that right. Last week, Elon Musk was calling for Trump’s impeachment and even floated the baseless claim that Trump’s name appeared in Epstein-related documents. Fast forward to this weekend, and the Tesla titan is practically waving a MAGA flag again. So, what happened?

As reported by CNN, cue the chaos in Los Angeles. ICE raids and immigration crackdowns ignited fiery protests across the city, the Donald Trump administration doubled down on its tough stance, and Elon Musk, known for his support of hardline immigration policies, couldn’t resist falling back in line. He started by scrubbing his most explosive X posts about Trump, including the impeachment call and that Epstein accusation. In their place? A subtle yet unmistakable pivot back to praise.

Musk threw up American flags on a post from Vice President JD Vance, declaring, “The president will not tolerate rioting and violence.” That was followed by a repost of Trump’s Truth Social jab at California Gov. Gavin Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass, demanding they “apologize to the people of Los Angeles” amid escalating unrest.

Donald Trump Is Still Fighting With Elon Musk

To top it off, Musk chimed in with a simple “cool” to a clip of Vance saying, “if Elon chills out a little bit, everything will be fine.” And just like that, the tension between the world’s richest man and the most powerful Republican seemed to ease up, at least on the surface, but the drama isn’t over.

In true Musk fashion, he also fact-checked his own AI chatbot, Grok, after it seemingly confirmed a viral image where Musk allegedly clapped back at Stephen Miller with the post: “Just like I took your wife.” Musk fired back, “No, it’s fake ffs, I never posted this.

Awkward much? Especially since Musk just re-followed Miller, Trump’s former top immigration advisor, after unfollowing him during last week’s digital meltdown. That move raised even more eyebrows given that Miller’s wife, Katie, left the White House to work for Musk, and the couple regularly partied with him off the clock.

Now? Katie’s staying silent, and White House aides are gossiping like it’s a season finale cliffhanger. Are the Millers still in Musk’s inner circle? Is the bromance with Trump back on? And what does this all mean for 2024?

Elon Musk Takes Back His Trump Insults

Let’s not forget, Musk still isn’t 100% back in MAGA mode. He threw shade at Trump’s signature domestic policy proposal, the so-called “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” calling it a fiscal disaster. Nonpartisan groups agree it could pile trillions onto the national debt, even though the administration insists otherwise.

On Sunday, Musk doubled down on his dissent, replying “Correct” to a post claiming his spat with Trump is “neither a stunt nor a distraction.” He also reposted a Babylon Bee article that mocked Republicans for doing “the opposite of what everyone voted for them to do.” So yeah, the bromance isn’t fully healed. Think of it as a rocky situation: they might be texting again, but they’re not back to brunching at Mar-a-Lago just yet.

Tesla stock is starting to rebound, but it’s still not back to pre-fallout levels. Whether this fragile truce holds will depend on backroom deals, political maneuvering, and possibly Musk’s next impulsive tweet. Stay tuned, because in the saga of Trump and Musk, the only thing we can count on is chaos.
