Elon Musk listens as Donald Trump speaks in the Oval Office of the White House on Feb. 11, 2025.
“No,” Trump said when asked if he had any wish to do so.
Asked if he thought his relationship with the Tesla and SpaceX CEO was over, Trump said, “I would assume so, yeah.”.
Trump’s comments were the most extensive since he and Musk exchanged threats and attacks on X and Truth Social earlier this week.
