Elon Musk has initiated a new tension with President Donald Trump. He described Trump's tax and spending proposal as a 'disgusting scandal.'

Musk stated on the X social media platform that this massive spending bill would burden American citizens with an unbearable debt.

He expressed that this proposal would increase the budget deficit by 2.5 trillion dollars and that it is unacceptable.

This situation could embolden some Republican senators who are starting to oppose Trump. Musk might encourage these senators to raise their voices in critical negotiations in Congress.

Musk had previously made significant donations to Trump, but now he is opposing his policies. This raises questions about Musk's relationship with Trump.
