You might have noticed the internet buzzing nonstop after Elon Musk dropped a jaw-dropping tweet aimed squarely at former President Donald Trump.
Musk claimed that the reason the Epstein files haven’t been fully released is that Trump’s name is buried deep inside them.
He capped off the tweet with a cheeky “Have a nice day, DJT!”—stirring the pot even more.
Not stopping there, Musk followed up with a second tweet urging people to “Mark this post for the future.
The truth will come out.”
This set off a storm online, with the drama spilling over to Truth Social, where Trump fired back, threatening to cut funding and subsidies to Musk’s companies like Tesla and SpaceX.
Musk then hit back on X (formerly Twitter), saying he would be shutting down the latest SpaceX Dragon rocket program — a crucial service for NASA’s International Space Station missions.
With all this chaos, many are left wondering: is Elon Musk just blowing off steam, or is there something deeper — maybe even some heavy chemical influences behind these explosive claims?
Who Fired the First Shot in the Billionaire Battle?
Social media and news outlets have been abuzz debating who actually kicked off this fiery feud and who might come out on top.
One Musk fan pointed out the difference in approach: “Elon went after Trump’s bill, playing the ball, while Trump went after Elon personally.”
It all started on June 3 when Musk publicly slammed Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill,” blasting it as a “massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill” and calling out those who supported it.
Two days later, during a White House press briefing with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Trump addressed Musk’s critique.
He reminded everyone of Musk’s previous support during the election and claimed, “I think I would’ve won Pennsylvania easily anyway.”
Musk quickly responded on X: “Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate.
Such ingratitude.”
Trump didn’t hold back, expressing his disappointment in Musk and hinting that the billionaire only turned against him when he found out about cuts to electric vehicle subsidies — worth billions.
He also tweeted about terminating Musk’s government subsidies and contracts, sparking the feud into a full-blown public battle.
Musk Points Fingers at Bill Gates and Epstein’s Client List
Elon Musk didn’t limit his accusations to Trump.
Back in October 2024, during an interview with Tucker Carlson, Musk claimed some big names—including Bill Gates—were terrified of the Epstein client list becoming public if Trump won again.
When Carlson asked if Reid Hoffman was uneasy about this, Musk didn’t hesitate: “Yes. And Gates.”
Fast forward to May 2025 at the Qatar Economic Forum, Musk fired back at Bill Gates after Gates accused him of “killing children in the world’s poorest countries” by cutting foreign aid.
Musk called Gates “a huge liar” and stunned the audience by accusing Gates of being linked to Jeffrey Epstein.
When a reporter tried to respond, the crowd erupted in cheers for Musk, who added, “I wouldn’t trust that guy to babysit my kids.”
The Epstein Connection and Mar-a-Lago Mysteries
The whole Epstein saga is a tangled web.
Jeffrey Epstein reportedly “committed suicide” in prison under suspicious circumstances during Trump’s first term.
More recently, Virginia Giuffre, a key Epstein survivor who accused Prince Andrew and others, allegedly died by suicide during Trump’s second term — despite her earlier public pleas warning she might be targeted.
Interestingly, Giuffre was recruited by Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s partner in crime, at none other than Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, where the young Giuffre worked as a spa attendant.
Rumors swirl about Epstein acting as a Mossad agent running “honey trap” operations.
While claims about Trump being involved in compromising footage remain unproven, if true, it might shed light on why Trump has remained so muted about Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s aggressive policies.
The Internet Weighs In with Memes, Theories, and Shock
As the Musk-Trump-Gates feud unfolds, the internet has exploded with videos, photos, and memes of Trump partying with Epstein and Maxwell at Mar-a-Lago.
Musk posing with Maxwell also stoked the fire.
Comments ranged from “Elon Musk didn’t kill himself” to urgent calls for Musk to increase his security detail.
Piers Morgan simply said, “Holy sh*t!” while conspiracy theorist Alex Jones exclaimed, “God Help Us ALL…”
Meanwhile, analyst Russell Dobular speculated on a duo commentary show that Musk’s erratic moves might be due to drug use and predicted Tesla’s board could replace Musk as CEO by year’s end.
Since the public spat began, Tesla shares have dropped 14% on Wall Street.
So Who Will Come Out on Top in This Billionaire Showdown?
The battle between Trump, Musk, and Gates is far from over.
With allegations flying, political moves, and public drama playing out live on social media, the world watches to see which titan of industry and politics will have the last word.
What do you think? Who will win this high-stakes clash of billionaires, and what’s next for all involved?
