Two egomaniac megalomaniacs with no impulse control.
Who didn't see this meltdown coming?
The MAGA faithful who bought a Tesla
If you believe this fake "fight" then it's working. 😂 You Liberals are so gullible. You Dems are so clueless.
Trump is a wind bag. He just likes being the big guy in the big beautiful White House.
I asked myself how long will it takes
@@BeatRoot14 I doubt that any MAGA person bought a Tesla, even though Donald was endorsing it. battery power, alternative energy sources for cars is against their religion.
Two narcissists were never going to remain friends for long!

Trump is always emotionally disturbed
Elon is 100x worse, acts like a spoiled child in every situation
Why does Elon keep switching sides? He’s the one who is emotionally stunted manchild. He wasted 3 million dollars and it was all for nothing. There is ni proof Trump is a pedophile, and quite frankly, Musk is a complete coward. If those files actually had dirt Musk absolutely had the opportunity to steal it and show the world, just like he did with every American’s data. It is quite possibly the worst bluff
This is the best episode of The Real Housewives of Mar-a-Lago yet!

Joe can live with Trump & see Elon on weekends

@takpark2763😂😂😂
It's hilarious, but at the same time it's a reminder all they care about is themselves and not america or all the people they're both harming.
Just like Brandon... When he stole everyone's money & triple inflation, etc...
Yes, we need public servants in our government people that no one is enough enough they shouldn’t be allowed to make any more than what their wages are. They shouldn’t be allowed to gamble in the stock market. They shouldn’t be allowed to be in fraternal organizations of men in business together in secret They shouldn’t be allowed to get a whole bunch of government loans cause they make enough money and the amount and you know we’re never allowed to really vote for anybody they put out there who were allowed to vote for that should tell you something it’s corrupt all of the whole system and they have an agenda And they come out way richer than they ever went in and we shouldn’t allow that it’s a special person to Clean this country up somebody that knows when is enough enough? I don’t think we will ever find a true leader money isn’t racist and you shouldn’t let it rule

Is this Making America Great Again ?
Well, it's GREAT in HIGH PROFILE DIVORCE! China Xi and the CCP are laughing!
Right ?
Yes it is making America great again.
its making it great to me, best thing to watch thats come out of the USA for over a decade 😂
@Dawn-s7k
How exactly ?.
Elon expects Trump to repay him 1 millions times for his donation. Hard luck Elon !!!!!!. You bet on the wrong horse😂😂😂😂😂😂
Calling bribes "donations" in the USA? 😂
I’m surprised that it took this long
Trump has never had a friend in his life. Only future enemies.
Is anyone surprised?
Q: Is anyone surprised? A: not in the least, for this was an MOTE... MOST OBVIOUS THING EVER...!!! okay next question please.
I dont think anyone in there right mind
Typical criminal relationship, ratting on each other just cause they are mad.
Haha ! Yes !
Yes!!!
aww, what a brutal divorce
And they divorced in pride month 😲
Reminds me of my parents
Elon is never gonna get his reach around from Trump now.
Imagine history teachers in the future trying to explain 2025!
America elected a clown and got a circus, what an embarrassing shitshow of a country 😅
An Biden gave away the US and let Millions come in illegally. They will find so much more money that the Democrats and Republicans are stealing. At least Trump trying to do good for the American people
I couldn’t put it into words but you have explained it perfectly!. It’s like watching a tv show, new episodes daily.
You know, when he got re-elected, I told the universe to stop acting like fucking 2nd grader who can't move on from a joke and has to keep repeating it.
.... but I don't blame it, it really is a hilarious joke.
Because they're both narcissists and that's what always happens.
I’m being waiting for this moment and it’s comes at the right time
😂😂😂😂😂
Anybody want some popcorn?
LOL as long as the clown didn't make it.
You guys need to get your reporting together. Musk was not "cutting government waste," he was destroying parts of the government that the conservatives didn't like. That was never about waste.
Repeating lies is not good journalism.
The interesting thing is that the parts of the government that the conservatives didn't like were the most wasteful. So I guess you could mark that one down as a win-win situation!
@@bryanjackson8917 Define "wasteful" in this context. How much government money has been given to Musk? Wasn't that "wasteful"?
@@Jts-s8k Not if we ever want to reach Mars! (lol)
Why does this report take Musk's claim that he was "rooting out government waste" at face value? He was just gutting random parts of the government that actually benefit non-rich people - that is NOT cutting any waste
That! Exactly. Let's make that very clear.
Meanwhile Musk will get BILLIONS more in taxpayer money for Musk's exploding rockets 🤷
Actually he reduced programs that were fraud the money that actually made it to these programs were minimal to the actual amounts that actually made it out @@dyking2105
If Musk was rooting out waste he’d have thrown Trump out months ago.
Thanks for the heads up. I won't bother watching it. Maybe CH4 should report on what Musk was actually doing.
It's so much more juicy as we thought. This is glorious. Round 2 today.
SERIOUSLY INMURTURE LITTLE BOYS NEED TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL AND LEARN TO GROW UP.
Seriously America needs to actually see the facts that both the parties in America are filled with pedophiles and that they are all growing richer and richer being in politics wonder why and why are we so in debt. While Americans struggle financially as the greatest nation on earth here we have these idiots on our news feed getting richer just being on the net it's out of control and stupid
Honestly, I’ve gone through so much popcorn in the last 2 days. This is brilliant
Yup 😆

How can anyone take these two seriously when what comes out their mouths is so idiotic? Especially Trump.
Nobody really wants a Tesla
Then why are so many on the road?
@@Gorio-h3uYou know things change over time right? People bought Teslas before Elon let Ketamine take the wheel, and before they learned about all the build quality issues, the lawsuit where tesla employees where sharing peoples car camera footage with each other (group chat with video of a naked man in his garage while the car records him they passed around) *and* the fact that now other car companies have caught up with Electric options, even though Obama government subsidies gave Tesla the head start. It’s a tortoise and the hare scenario with tesla and other EV makers

Have you checked Tesla stock lately?? 😭😭 Literally no one wants a Tesla
The bill is incredible, 10 million people kicked off their healthcare and food stamps.
Russia's offer to give shelter to Musk proves it is big fault to USA. It follows Russia interest in Ukraine. Ukraine cannot be treated as an independent state, with the right to NATO membership without reference to its geopolitical location. I will give an example illustrating why. It is a bit like Canada wanting to be a member of the Warsaw Pact someday. It would be impossible and Nawrocki probably had that in mind. The United States would have to react and create a belt of neutral states separating it from a communist Canada, or torpedo the project in the bud. Russia is doing the same in Ukraine. As in the example of Canada, the very idea of Ukraine's membership in NATO would require the reconstruction of the geopolitical system, i.e. the creation of a safety belt between Ukraine and Russia in the form of independent republics, which again could not, despite their aspirations, belong to NATO. Such republics can only be created at the expense of Ukrainian territory. For this reason, the fact that Poland is in NATO and the EU is due to the existence of neutral Ukraine and Belarus. Nawrocki understands this perfectly well. Russia's admission to NATO would cause a reaction from Russia - we already have one, it's Russia's war with Ukraine, which proclaims such aspirations. If we consider Russia's war with Ukraine in moral categories, e.g. whoever attacked first is to blame, then we ignore its geopolitical aspect, which is the most important here and is constantly emphasized by Russia, to the point of boredom. I think that ignoring what Russia is doing and what it constantly explains, i.e. putting Russia in a corner for its alleged "moral responsibility for the war" must end badly for the world, because Russia does not care about such accusations and will eventually attack those who pose a real threat to it (the Russia-Ukraine war is a proxy war). Russia's real enemy is the expansionist policy of the European Union, probably supported by Israel, and it is these entities that it sets in its sights. That is why it is so difficult to bring peace to Ukraine. Russia wants peace, but above all it wants Ukraine to be politically neutral, this is the most important thing for Russia, while the EU clearly shows, through military and political support for Ukraine, that it does not want such peace and that it will accept Ukraine into the EU and into "its" NATO. These are political fantasies of the EU leaders. In this situation, Trump is withdrawing military support for the EU because he does not want a US-Russia war, and the EU is acting unwisely, like a child in the fog, supporting the war in Ukraine, which, by the way, is not ecological and leaves a permanent carbon footprint, i.e. is against the most important goals of the EU. What is the EU doing? It is inventing NATO bis, which reveals its true intentions and confirms my theses. In the situation of suspension that we currently have, Russia knows for sure that it cannot attack NATO, because it will be met with a NATO reaction, and it also knows that if there is peace, Ukraine will want to join NATO. It also knows that it can attack NATO BIS. Russia may even support this idea. In fact, NATO, the US, the EU and Russia are currently in a deadlock that cannot be resolved without creating a neutral zone between Russia and Ukraine. For this to happen, Ukraine must be divided and this will probably be the price of peace: neutral Eastern Ukraine, functioning as an independent state but politically subordinate to Russia, and a Free Western Ukraine, which will be able to join NATO and the EU. In my opinion, these are the conditions for peace from Russia's point of view. Without its consent, there will be no peace. Teasing Russia with arms supplies to Ukraine and the idea of arming the EU and creating NATO BIS may, in my opinion, lead to Russia, fearing the strengthening of the EU, first warning the EU and NATO: it will carry out a quick tactical strike that will tear half of its territory, the entire eastern part, from Ukraine, and in the next step it will go further West. To avoid this, the EU should abandon its plans, and Ukraine, in order to maintain territorial cohesion, should immediately change its leader and propose peace conditions itself - resignation from NATO, as well as membership in the European Union. Ukraine should give up its ambitions for the next few decades and accept its territorial losses, otherwise it will all become part of Russia again. This should calm Russia, only then will relative peace be restored. Another option, an attack by the "re-armed" EU on Russia through open military support of EU countries, especially Poland, which the EU would like to weaken and bleed dry just like Ukraine, will not cause any NATO reaction, so the effect of such an attack on Russia would be that Russia would again occupy Berlin and the countries of Eastern and Central Europe. In my opinion, Russia will not allow a war with a strong EU, it is certainly already preparing for it, although it cannot attack NATO members first. The result of the EU's ill-advised, politically stupid actions may be a return of the EU to the political realities of 1945. They say that when God wants to punish someone, he takes away their mind, and this is what we can see in the example of the EU. First, the EU weakened by adopting ing immigrants, who are now a problem for it and may turn into enemies of the Union in a war situation, is currently creating a “NATO BIS”, which Putin may even be very keen on, besides, it is also weakening itself with the Green Deal and the fight against the carbon footprint, all in a situation where the USA has already shown that it will not intervene in the event of a private NATO BIS-Russia war, which the Union completely wrongly considers as the withdrawal of the USA from the role of NATO leader. Understanding these processes gives Nawrocki a chance to bring about a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia, on terms that take into account Russia's position. It is enough to explain to the world what this war is about and to make the world aware that the EU's failure to accept Russia's peace conditions and the continuation of the EU's current policy towards Russia will result in a lonely EU war with Russia, without the participation of the USA, which must end in disaster. What the EU is currently doing, military support for Ukraine, will at some point start to appeal to Putin, because he will consider that in this situation, Russia's war with the EU will become a just war for Russia, and this in itself is attractive to Russia, because it establishes Russia's moral position as a just state for the next century. We must realize that Russia, based on the countries of Eastern and Central Europe, will become a superpower and will surpass the West in the military, space exploration, and new technologies (Russia's current cooperation with China shows that Russia is already providing itself with supplies of the necessary weapons components in the event of war). We can say that Russia is waiting for NATO BIS. The authorities of the EU, Germany, France, and other EU members have no idea what is currently happening. They think that if they have 600 million people, they will win a war with Russia, which has at least 4,000 nuclear weapons and unlimited raw material resources, and a recently signed economic agreement with China, which is no coincidence, such a war. Let me put it this way, calling them fools would be a compliment. In this image Trump-Musk conflict is big gain to Russia.
Ukraine will never be politically neutral towards Russia. That’s a bias that will remain. Such as that of Poland and Germany long after Warsaw.
Channel 4, your news cameras are really good.
Musk thought Trump would be INDEBTED to him for his Donation to his campaign.
Dems were going to come after Elons money and ponzi companies which is why he backed trump
no, you thought that he thought that
I tried yesterday to get a hold of a social security waited an hour on hold finally gave up
So sorry, DOGE came in and made the worst mess, now Elon has regrets--but now he can't make it right. It's ashame--fools at the wheel.

Trump hates electric cars - drill baby drill. Musk manufactures electric cars. Why did Musk team up with someone who hates electric cars. I wish someone would explain that to me.
Because Trump will do anything for money! Easy mark!!!
He basically did it as a defiance to Joe Biden after he shafted Elon and didn't involve him with the EV mandate. (Elon is basically Donald Trump Lite, he goes where the money is and opportunity for power).
Why did America elect a traitor? There are lots of mysteries to solve.
He wants the space subsidiaries, elons end goal is mars. A man on mars will mean musk will be remembered forever
Musk wanted to control NASA, get lots of gvt contracts and to export his racism from his childhood across the globe. Easy to do when you control the US gvt.
😢😮 What's that Donald Trump and his people put all Americans through this and many Americans are now homeless.Don't know what they're gonna do.I'm so ashamed of donald trump😢
The explanation of why Musk supported Trump is far simpler than the one posed. Musk's baby is Tesla. He Loves it like a child...he is on record saying so. With Spacex and Tesla being so intertwined with government contracts, Musk's motivation was to join the Trump bandwagon, as insurance, knowing full-well that if he did not, Trump would attack his business interests stated, if he were to get elected. What is obviously totally ironic, is that, exactly that, has transpired and will probably continue. For all Musk's engineering visionary views, when it comes to politics, he is a simpleton; which is why without the likes of Shotwell at Spacex, that company would NEVER have reached the heights of success it has. Now, Musk is left with the shitty end of the stick in his hand, having helped put in office the very person that will now target him. Loose Loose for Musk.
Why would Musk believe Trump would help Tesla? He thinks FINITE fossil fuels are the future! 😂
Give them people their jobs back
Just like two children in the playground. Let them fight it out a little.
