Elon Musk drops 'really big bomb' with huge claim about Donald Trump
Donald Trump and Elon Musk's bromance has come to a spectacular and petty end as the Tesla boss dropped what he has called a huge "bomb" about the President. Taking to his X (Twitter) account, the richest man in the world said it was "Time to drop the really big bomb" before claiming that Donald Trump "is in the Epstein files". Trump's name was released as previously sealed court documents were made public last year, in which he was named as an associate of the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. There is no suggestion he knew of any crimes or participated in any criminal behaviour. The South African billionaire, who bought his way into Washington by pumping millions into Trump's campaign, has taken to X to add more fuel to the pair raging between the former pals. Once Trump's right hand man, Musk left his special government position as the Department of Government Efficiency - specially set up by the President for the Tesla CEO who seemed to be longing for a top job in Washington - a week ago. The fall out between Musk and Trump has gotten out of control in just a few days, spiralling into a series of petty online fights. The Tesla boss, on X, wrote: "Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate."
