ELON MUSK APOLOGISES TO DONALD TRUMP

Elon Musk apologized for recent posts about President Donald Trump, admitting they “went too far,” in a tweet at 07:04 UTC today.

The retraction follows a bitter public spat ignited by Musk’s unverified claim on June 7 that Trump was linked to Jeffrey Epstein’s files, triggering a $150 billion drop in Tesla’s market value and Trump’s threats to cut government subsidies for Musk’s companies, including SpaceX’s $14 billion NASA contracts.

The move may reflect damage control, as tensions continue to rise.

I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week. They went too far.
