“I’ve always liked Elon,” he said, but was “very surprised” by Musk‘s recent comments.

“Elon’s upset because we took the EV mandate, which was a lot of money for electric vehicles and they’re having a hard time with electric vehicles and they want us to pay billions of dollars in subsidy. Elon knew this from the beginning,” Trump continued.

Trump then apparently spilled that Musk is upset because Musk‘s ally, Jared Isaacman, was pulled from contention to lead NASA.

Isaacman is apparently a Democrat and Trump said, “I didn’t think it was appropriate…He wanted that person, a certain person. I can understand why he’s upset.”

About the state of their relationship, Trump said they had a “great relationship” but “I don’t know if we will anymore….I’m very disappointed because Elon knew the inner workings of this bill. I’m very disappointed in Elon. I’ve helped Elon a lot.”
