Once major allies, Elon Musk and Donald Trump have been exchanging hostilities over social media. When the U.S. President threatened to cut off government contracts to the tech billionaire, Musk didn’t take it sitting down. Instead, he called for Trump’s impeachment.
Now, in a bombshell amidst the intensifying feud, Musk has shone light upon Trump’s association with the notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. He had accused Trump of hiding the Epstein list and recently shared a video showing the two men partying together.

Epstein was convicted of running a criminal enterprise that included human trafficking, child abuse, sexual assault, and money laundering for over two decades. But, he had powerful connections too. Now, Musk has drawn attention to the time Trump was partying with Epstein in 1992.

Epstein, who killed himself in prison on August 10, 2019, 35 days after his arrest, had many influential friends in his circle. Not just Donald Trump, even Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Stephen Hawking, Leonardo DiCaprio, Prince Andrew, and other famous personalities’ names were declared through the unsealed documents of Epstein Files.

As Trump pointed out their dwindling relationship, Musk responded on X: “Without me, Trump would have lost the election.” To this, Trump reacted in a post on Truth Social, “I don’t mind Elon turning against me, but he should have done so months ago.” Musk spent hundreds of millions of dollars in Trump’s re-election campaigns.
It goes without saying that Trump and Musk’s fractured bond will affect the U.S. political landscape, considering Musk’s huge technological and economic influence. As for the Epstein matter, it puts a target on the backs of many powerful personalities.
