Donald Trump-Elon Musk memes as fast and furious as their social media fight: ‘Siri, play Bad Blood’
If you have seen more Donald Trump and Elon Musk content on your social media feeds this week, you aren’t alone.
The President of the United States and his once most-trusted advisor appear to be having quite the war of words.
To catch you up, Trump threatened to cut Musk’s government contracts. Musk claimed that Trump’s administration hasn’t released all the records related to sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein because Trump is mentioned in them.
The tech entrepreneur also shared a post on social media calling for Trump’s impeachment and skewered the president’s signature tariffs, predicting a recession this year.
It began with Musk complaining about the centerpiece of Trump’s legislative agenda, which the president at first took in stride.
Trump then posted that Musk had been “wearing thin,” that he had “asked him to leave” his administration and that the tech titan had “gone CRAZY.”
As a result, the online memes have been overdrive.
Take a look and some of the more creative posted:
