McDaniel: Trump, Musk feud like Ross and Rachel on ‘Friends'
Former Republican National Committee (RNC) chair Ronna McDaniel during a recent TV appearance equated the bitter feud between President Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk to the cyclical relationship between Ross and Rachel on the sitcom 'Friends.' 'I'm hoping it's like a Ross and Rachel thing. That it's just a break and they come back together. You know, we all panicked when they broke up on 'Friends,'' McDaniel said in a Thursday night appearance on NewsNation's 'Cuomo,' adding that she hopes they 'come back together.' Musk, who heads six companies, has been slamming Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' that is currently moving through Congress. He amped up the rhetoric Thursday, taking direct jabs at Trump by backing a call for the president to be impeached and accusing him of being in the Jeffrey Epstein files. Trump threatened to cancel the contracts that Musk's companies have with the federal government. Earlier at the White House on Thursday, Trump said he was 'very surprised' and 'very disappointed' in Musk over his criticism of the massive spending bill that passed the House last month. 'I think Trump's — you've seen Trump forgive people who have said things about him. You've seen these two men work very closely together. Elon was a big part of this election,' the former RNC chair told host Chris Cuomo. 'He came in, their businesses have both suffered, they've been attacked, they've taken a lot of personal hits for coming out politically, and I hope in the end they call a truce.' Cuomo then asked McDaniel if she thinks both men are 'worth more or less than before the election?' 'I think they're both worth more,' she said in response. Trump is looking to move past the fallout. Officials close to the White House did not rule out the possibility of the two men fixing their relationship. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
