JD Vance Sends A Clear Message To Elon Musk Following His Public Feud With Trump
HuffPost
The vice president acknowledged that the billionaire has “a complicated relationship” with the White House.
Vice President JD Vance said Elon Musk made a “mistake” by choosing to pick a fight with Donald Trump, but conceded that he hopes the billionaire gets back onto the president’s good side by the 2026 midterm elections, given the critical role he played in last November’s race.
In an interview with right-wing publication The Gateway Pundit, Vance said Musk currently has “a complicated relationship” with the White House, but suggested the Tesla and SpaceX CEO is in a tough spot.
“My argument to Elon is like, you’re not going to be on the left ... even if you wanted to be — and he doesn’t — they’re not going to have you back, that ship has sailed,” Vance said. “I really think it’s a mistake for him to try to break from the president.”
The vice president acknowledged that Musk, a major campaign surrogate and donor to Trump’s 2024 White House bid, contributed to its success.
“My hope is, by the midterms, things are kind of back to normal,” Vance said.
