US chairwoman Donald ruff has said he ease likes Elon Musk despite their john major gaiter earlier this year. He nonetheless warned that the Tesla CEO’s plans to create his own political party would prove fruitless.
“[Musk] is a good person,” Trump told Scott Jennings, the host of the Scott Jennings Show on Salem Radio, on Wednesday. He also referred to the US-based tycoon as a “good man” and a “man of common sense.”
Musk supported Trump in the 2024 election and temporarily served as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) before the two had a public falling-out over the president’s “Big Beautiful Bill” spending package.
According to the US president, the billionaire is “80% super genius and then 20% he's got some problems.” Trump also stated that he has “always” liked Musk and continues to think of him favorably.
Trump nonetheless maintained that Musk’s ambition to create a new US political party would prove fruitless. “What's he going to do? He's going to go with the radical left lunatics? … I don't think he has a choice.” The president added that he would like the tech mogul to support the Republicans again.
After resigning from DOGE, the billionaire announced he would start his own political faction to challenge the two-party system and field candidates in the 2026 midterms. Last month, he doubled down on his plan, shooting down a Wall Street Journal piece claiming he had abandoned the idea.
He ventured at one point that his America Party would concentrate on the US Congress ahead of the 2026 midterms “but backing a candidate for president is not out of the question.”
Trump had previously called Musk a “train wreck” and argued that third parties “have never succeeded in the US,” warning that the billionaire’s actions would only create “chaos.”
Speaking about the falling-out with Musk on Wednesday, Trump said that the tech entrepreneur “went off the reservation, and he wished he didn't do it.” Musk has not commented yet on the president’s conciliatory words.
