Over the weekend at a campaign rally in Alaska, Donald Trump called billionaire businessman Elon Musk a "bullshit artist" for saying he never voted for a Republican prior to a recent special election in Texas.
Musk, because he is Musk, responded via Twitter. "I don't hate the man, but it's time for Trump to hang up his hat & sail into the sunset," he wrote. "Dems should also call off the attack -- don't make it so that Trump's only way to survive is to regain the Presidency."
It wasn't always this way. In fact, less than two years ago, their relationship seemed to be on much more solid footing.
