Signs of a truce are emerging in an increasingly painful conflict between the world's two of the most powerful men in the world.
President Donald Trump predicted a challenge during an interview with Politico on Thursday during a day of a quarrel with Elon Musk on social media.
Additionally, White House aides convinced the president to call the Tesla billionaire CEO on Friday to promote peace after adjusting public criticism of Musk to avoid escalation.
“Oh, that's OK,” Trump told Politico on a brief call when asked about his one-time big giant breakup. “It’s going well, never done better.” Trump continued to promote his enthusiastic rating, saying: “The numbers are through the roof, which is the highest poll I’ve ever had and I have to go.”
This is a stark contrast to the world's ugly online dispute over Trump and Musk over his “Great Beauty Act.”
The bet is high enough that the exchange is so shocking that aides and allies including hedge fund manager Bill Ackman are eager to ease tensions – Musk seems to be happy.
Ackerman wrote on X: “I support @RealDonaldTrump and @elonmusk, and they should achieve peace for the good of our great nation.”
Musk replied: “You are right.”
Earlier Thursday – Musk was angry at the cost of the legislative legislative, and Trump reviewed some of his comments on his own social media platform at the urging of White House aides.
Aides advised him to focus on the bill and pass the Senate instead of a conflict with Musk, a person granted anonymously to discuss private communication, according to a person near the White House.
A Truth Society post by Trump reflects this restraint. “I don't mind Elon's objection to me, but he should have done so a few months ago,” the president wrote. This is one of the greatest bills ever, in Congress,” he added, focusing on its welfare and signing “make America great again! ” added earlier.
