Elon Musk says he 'regrets' some of his posts about Donald Trump

Elon Musk has said he “regrets” some of his posts about Donald Trump, saying they “went too far”.

Musk posted a series of tweets on X last week in a fiery exchange between the pair.

Among them, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO described the president’s sweeping tax and spending bill as a “disgusting abomination”.

Last week, the billionaire also posted on X saying the president appeared in files relating to the disgraced paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.

The post was deleted by Sunday, along with some others accusing the president of wrongdoing.

The White House dismissed Musk’s Epstein claims at the time, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt saying: “This is an unfortunate episode from Elon, who is unhappy with the One Big Beautiful Bill [a Republican tax and spending bill] because it does not include the policies he wanted.

“The president is focused on passing this historic piece of legislation and making our country great again.”
