Trump loses patience with Musk's opposition, and the relationship between the two is on thin ice

According to the Wall Street Journal, after Musk criticized the Republican's massive tax and spending bill, Trump seems to have lost patience with Musk. Meanwhile, Musk was angry about Trump's decision to withdraw the nomination of an important ally to lead NASA. A senior White House official said that Trump was unhappy with Musk's decision to criticize the bill he signed, saying the president was confused by Musk's increased criticism after closely collaborating for four months. The official stated that Trump's senior advisors were caught off guard by Musk's latest offensive. According to informed sources, the White House's recent rejection of Trump's NASA director nominee Jared Isaacman also strained the already unstable alliance between the two. A person directly familiar with the matter said that this decision infuriated Musk, who complained to colleagues over the weekend that he had donated hundreds of millions of dollars to help Trump win last year's election, only to see Isaacman's nomination canceled. People close to Musk said that his disappointment with the NASA incident made him more willing to actively criticize the tax bill.
