Elon Musk Tweets Blunt Factcheck After Trump Claims Musk 'Voted For' Him

As much as Tesla CEO Elon Musk seems to love to dabble with the far-right, it seems there's now no love lost between him and former Republican President Donald Trump.

After Musk recently said he never voted for a Republican in his life until last month, Trump called him a "bullsh*t artist" at a rally in Alaska over the weekend and claimed Musk told him he voted for him in 2020.


Now it seems a bit of a feud has erupted between the two silver spooners. Musk has been coming for the former President on Twitter.

Yesterday, he posted a tweet saying essentially Trump was lying about his vote.

Trump also mocked Musk for backing out of his much ballyhooed purchase of Twitter during his speech at the Alaska event, which was to promote former Republican Governor Sarah Palin's House run.

He said:

"Elon is not going to buy Twitter. Where did you hear that before? From me. He's got himself a mess."

He then went on to claim he had Musk's vote.

"You know, he said the other day, 'I've never voted for a Republican.' I said I didn't know that."
"So he's another bullsh*t artist."

Today, Musk directed an even more pointed response than a simple "not true" at the former President in which he said it was time for Trump to call it a day on his political career.

Musk wrote:

"I don’t hate the man, but it’s time for Trump to hang up his hat & sail into the sunset."

He also offered some unsolicited advice to the Democratic Party.

"Dems should also call off the attack—don’t make it so that Trump’s only way to survive is to regain the Presidency."

In a follow-up tweet, Musk was even more specific in his criticisms of Trump, calling out both his bombastic style and his advanced age.

Trump has yet to respond, since, you know, he's banned from Twitter forever.

Others on Twitter had plenty to say.

Many people found this feud between two trust fund egomaniacs nothing short of hilarious.







Musk—who also signaled support for far-right Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in his expected bid for the presidency in 2024—tweeted DeSantis would easily defeat Democratic President Joe Biden.

Let's hope he's as wrong about that prediction as he is correct in his summations of Trump.

'Based On A True Story' Movies That Aren't True At All

The entertainment industry has long been criticized for their creative license when it comes to retelling history or anything "based on a true story."

Going back to the silent film era and D.W. Griffith's ridiculously inaccurate White supremacist propaganda Birth Of A Nation to Mel Gibson's Braveheart to Disney's Pocahontas, some films go way beyond creative license and careen into total malarkey.

Musk's AI Chatbot Throws Republicans Under The Bus After Being Asked About Economy

Grok, billionaire Elon Musk's very own chatbot, threw Republicans under the bus after software engineer Alex Coke asked it if Democrats or Republicans have been better for the economy in the past 30 years, only for it to answer that yes, in fact, Democrats are the winners when it comes to economic policy.

Economic policy is certainly on everyone's minds these days. A new CNN poll conducted by SSRS shows that Americans are not pleased with President Donald Trump’s management of the economy, leaving him with unfavorable ratings on what is considered the nation’s most important issue.

CNN Airs Brutal Reminder Of Trump's Previous Economic Predictions—And They Did Not Age Well

CNN came with the receipts, airing a supercut of clips from 2020 and 2024 of President Donald Trump making hilariously wrong economic predictions—a damning reel of evidence as financial markets decline and investor concerns grow over Trump’s trade policies.

In fact, Trump’s escalating trade war pushed the S&P 500 more than 10% below its record high set just last month. A drop of this size is significant enough that professional investors call it a “correction,” and the S&P 500’s 1.4% decline on Thursday marked its first since 2023.
