Elon Musk and long-time Trump supporters object to Trump's big beautiful bill
Muskās public opposition of Trump right after his exit from the White House has left many confused and raised a lot of questions. While the split seems to be cordial from the Presidentās end, Musk is currently leading the charge against his new bill.
The United Statesā first buddy, Elon Musk, appears committed to rallying support against President Trumpās āOne Big Beautiful Bill,ā claiming it goes against previous budget trimming efforts.
Call your Senator,
Call your Congressman,
Bankrupting America is NOT ok!
KILL the BILL

Musk leads the resistance to Trumpās OBBB
Elon Musk remains steadfast in his public campaign against President Donald Trumpās latest legislation, drumming up opposition to the āOne Big Beautiful Bill Actā throughout the day on his X platform.
The Tesla and SpaceX founder urged Americans all over the country to reach out to their representatives and demand its rejection.
Muskās opposition seems to be focused on how much implementing the bill will cost.
In a series of posts on his social media platform X, Musk criticized the bill, stating, āCall your Senator, Call your Congressman, Bankrupting America is NOT ok! KILL the BILL.ā
He labeled the legislation a ādisgusting abomination,ā warning it could increase the U.S. debt crisis by adding over $2.4 trillion to the federal deficit over the next decade.
Muskās opposition has found support among some economic conservatives. Senators Rand Paul and Mike Lee have echoed Muskās concerns, stressing the billās potential to increase the national debt and reverse the progress made in reducing government spending.
Long-time Trump supporters object to the tax bill
The āOne Big Beautiful Bill Actā is a major legislation aiming to permanently extend the 2017 Trump-era tax cuts, reduce federal spending on social programs, and increase the investments into defense and border security.
A central feature of the bill is the continuation of individual and corporate tax breaks, including exemptions on overtime pay, tips, and auto loan interest, as well as increased deductions for seniors and small businesses.
Musk has let his criticism of the bill be known, writing on X Tuesday night, āMammoth spending bills are bankrupting America!ā he also attached an image that showed the rising national debt over the past three decades. āENOUGH,ā he added.
The āOne Big Beautiful Bill Actā narrowly passed the House with a 215-214 vote and now faces the Senate. The bill includes provisions for substantial tax cuts and increased spending on various programs, which have led to projections of a $3.1T addition to the existing national debt over the next decade.
Critics of the bill argue that it unfairly benefits the wealthy and cuts into the budget for essential services. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that the bill could lead to 10.9 million Americans losing their health insurance by 2034.
The bill also proposes a 10-year ban on state-level enforcement of any law or regulation regarding artificial intelligence (AI), which has raised concerns about unsupervised technological advancement, including from Trumpās long-time supporter, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Americans have also shared their displeasure with the bill on many platforms, such as Reddit and X, where itās rare for both conservatives and liberals to agree.
Muskās opposition has been dismissed by some. House Speaker Mike Johnson stated that his comments were āterribly wrong.ā Trump has remained largely silent on Muskās criticisms and has focused on promoting the billās potential economic benefits.
