Truce? Elon Backs Down: Musk Deletes Posts Demanding Impeachment, Epstein Files, As Trump Also Deletes Musk Rants

Share

I’m a little surprised. Elon Musk has backed down.

At same time, so has Donald Trump.

After launching a tirade of invective and threats against Donald Trump on his own Twitter X account, Musk has removed all of them.

Trump has likewise deleted all of his bromides concerning Musk.

Is there a secret truce?

Musk vs. Trump became a Battle Royale on Wednesday and then the lead story on every newspaper, website, and TV or radio station.

Suddenly unhappy with Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” Musk went after Trump deliriously and viciously.

He suggested that Trump was all over the Jeffrey Epstein. He reTweeted a post calling for Trump’s impeachment. He endorsed the idea of JD Vance becoming president.

Trump’s cronies like Steve Bannon then claimed that Musk was in the US illegally and he could be deported. Trump said on TV that Musk was on drugs. And so on.

But now it’s all gone. Some Musk posts about the bill remain, and his call for a new political party called the America party. But the juicy stuff has vanished. What went on? Ask the lawyers. It was fun while it lasted!

Here are the collected musings of Elon Musk.
