Trump proves loyalty isn’t his strong suit, reportedly trash-talking Elon as ‘big time drug addict’ – We Got This Covered

WASHINGTON, DC - MARCH 11: U.S. President Donald Trump listens as White House Senior Advisor, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, speaks next to a Tesla Cyber Truck and a Model S on the South Lawn of the White House on March 11, 2025 in Washington, DC. Trump spoke out against calls for a boycott of Elon Musk's companies and said he would purchase a Tesla vehicle in what he calls a 'show of confidence and support' for Elon Musk.

Trump proves loyalty isn’t his strong suit .

If you’re surprised, don’t be. When you play in Donald Trump’s sandbox, don’t be shocked when he throws dirt in your face.

Everything seemed fine in the world of Trump and Musk until, well, it wasn’t. Trouble started brewing when Jared Isaacman, Musk’s chosen pick to head NASA—yes, the same NASA that Musk’s SpaceX relies on for lucrative contracts—donated to Democrats. To Trump, this was apparently the ultimate betrayal.

Musk then went on to publicly criticize Trump’s budget (you know, the “big, beautiful” one) and even echoed some impeachment rhetoric on social media. Let’s just say Trump didn’t take kindly to this. What followed can only be described as a political breakup of Shakespearean proportions.

According to reports, Trump has been calling confidants and allies, venting about Musk, and, yes, using the words “big-time drug addict.” This is classic Trump: when someone crosses him, the insults start flying. Musk has long been the target of speculation about his personal habits. But for Trump to weaponize that? It’s almost laughable, especially considering Trump himself has been accused of everything from tax fraud to hoarding classified documents.

Reports of a physical altercation between Musk and Trump’s Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, have added a dose of reality TV energy to this already absurd drama. The two allegedly got into a screaming match about government waste, with Musk claiming he could uncover over a trillion dollars of fraud. Bold claim, Elon. But apparently, Bessent wasn’t impressed, calling Musk a “fraud” himself. Things escalated when Musk allegedly rammed his shoulder into Bessent. And where was Trump in all this? Reportedly shaking his head and muttering, “This is too much.”

Musk recently accused Trump of being the reason documents related to Jeffrey Epstein haven’t been released. Trump, unsurprisingly, didn’t take kindly to this and reportedly floated the idea of investigating Musk’s government contracts. This is where the stakes get real. Musk’s companies, particularly SpaceX, rely heavily on government funding. Any serious investigation into those contracts could spell trouble—not just for Musk, but for the broader tech industry. It’s a classic Trump move: when in doubt, go for the jugular.
