Republican allies close to the White House are expressing frustration with Elon Musk’s opposition to their legislative priority, claiming the tech billionaire’s stance is driven by his business interests. The criticism comes after Musk spent Tuesday afternoon attacking the spending bill and threatening retaliation against its supporters.
According to Politico, the House-passed megabill, which represents the president’s primary legislative priority in Congress, has exposed ongoing divisions within the coalition that helped Trump secure the White House. The disagreement highlights tensions between the MAGA and Tech Right factions, with some members potentially facing pressure from Musk if they support the bill.
