Elon Musk backtracks: Admits he 'went too far'

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, who has been experiencing tension with US President Donald Trump in recent days, stated in a post on the social media platform X that he regrets some of the posts he made about Trump. Musk expressed that he "went too far" in those posts.

Trump had expressed his disappointment over the criticisms Musk made before leaving the White House. Trump had stated, "Our relationship with Elon was good, but I don't know the status of this relationship anymore. I helped him a lot, but now I am experiencing disappointment."

Musk, on the other hand, argued that he played a significant role in Trump's election success, commenting, "If it weren't for me, Trump would have lost the election." Furthermore, referring to Trump's previous posts regarding the treasury debt burden, he had made criticisms suggesting that the budget deficit would increase.

MUSK'S EPSTEIN ACCUSATION AGAINST TRUMP

Musk had also brought up the issue by claiming that Trump's name was mentioned in the case publicly known as the Epstein files. Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in prison while being tried on charges of creating a sex trafficking ring and sexual abuse of underage girls, and it had been alleged that Trump's name was also involved in this case.
