The bromance between billionaire Elon Musk and President Donald Trump appears to be back in full swing.
The pair were spotted shaking hands from fawning guests and having a swanky dinner at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday evening following Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduros capture.
Musk and Trump had been on the rocks for months following the Tesla CEOs exit from the ill-fated Department of Government Efficiency. While reports called the departure amicable, Musk publicly trashed Trump on his way out, taking swipes at the presidents Big Beautiful Bill.

(175,007 posts)As the billionaire eyes a new round of support for GOP candidates, it's worth asking whether his contributions are radioactive.
Maybe this is just wishful thinking, but shouldnât Elon Muskâs campaign contributions be considered radioactive right about now?

Especially as he plans to open his wallet again for Republicans ahead of the midterms? www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

President Donald Trumps once and future First Buddy has endorsed a social media post calling for white people especially men to defend their political power against other races and ethnicities.
If White men become a minority, we will be slaughtered, a user going by the name Jerr wrote on X. Remember, if non-Whites openly hate White men while White men hold a collective majority, then they will be 1000x times more hostile and cruel when they are a majority over Whites. White solidarity is the only way to survive.
To be sure, Musk didnt write that missive, but just days after dining with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, the billionaire used the social media platform he owns to amplify and endorse the explicitly white supremacist message......
The trouble is, Musk (whos made similar vows in the recent past before reversing course) has already indicated hes ready to boost Republicans again ahead of Election Day 2026.
Axios reported a few weeks ago:
Elon Musk has begun funding the GOPs House and Senate campaigns for the 2026 midterms an indication his relationship with President Trump has thawed since their messy breakup earlier this year.
Musk who threatened to launch a third party and support challengers to Republican incumbents during his dispute with Trump is now firmly back in the GOPs camp. The tech billionaire recently cut big checks to help Republicans win congressional races next year and indicated hed give more throughout the 2026 cycle, two sources with knowledge of the situation tell Axios.
.....Will Republican beneficiaries of the billionaires generosity face questions about the propriety of accepting money from someone who amplifies white supremacist messages? Watch this space
