"The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts. I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it," Trump wrote.
He added in a separate post, "Elon was 'wearing thin,' I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!"
Earlier in the day, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office, "Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore." He added, "He knew the inner workings of the bill better than anybody sitting here... He knew everything about it. He had no problem with it. All of a sudden he had a problem and he only developed the problem when he found out we're going to have to cut the EV mandate."
