VP Vance Doubts Elon Musk Rejoining MAGA After Trump Feud

Vice President JD Vance has publicly defended President Donald Trump against Elon Musk's allegations linking Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, calling such accusations "totally BS" and asserting that Trump "didn't do anything wrong with Jeffrey Epstein." Vance expressed hope that Musk might eventually be welcomed back into the MAGA community but acknowledged that Musk's recent aggressive public criticisms of Trump, including calling Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill" a "disgusting abomination," and his accusations regarding the Epstein files, may have made reconciliation impossible. He suggested Musk's frustration stems from his new involvement in politics and the slow pace of government bureaucracy, but warned that Musk's public feud with Trump is detrimental both to the country and to Musk himself. Despite Musk deleting some of his posts, the dispute has escalated, with Trump threatening to revoke Musk's government contracts and dismissing him as having "lost his mind." Many Republicans, including Vance, have rallied to Trump's defense, emphasizing loyalty to the president and cautioning against Musk's confrontational approach. The ongoing conflict highlights deep divisions within the MAGA movement and raises questions about Musk's future political alignment.
