Musk deletes post claiming Trump 'in the Epstein files'
Source: AFP
-snip-
"Time to drop the really big bomb: (Trump) is in the Epstein files," Musk posted on his social media platform, X as his growing feud with the president boiled over into a spectacularly public row.

Musk did not reveal which files he was talking about and offered no evidence for his claim.
He initially doubled down on the claim, writing in a follow-up message: "Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out."
However, he appeared to have deleted both tweets by Saturday morning.

(1,267 posts)then what does that say about Musk that he was okay to be associated with Trump as long as Trump gave him power to disrupt the government bureaucracy and get rid of the agencies that were investigating his businesses?
Oh by the way, Michael Wolff has audio of Epstein saying Trump and he were "best friends" for years and the story behind the real estate deal that ended their friendship. Epstein showed Trump a mansion he wanted to buy because he wanted Trump's opinion about what to do about the swimming pool. Behind his back, Trump undercut Epstein and acquired the mansion for himself. Trump sold the mansion for millions in profit.
See Trump was okay with what Epstein did with "girls on the younger side." He saw an opportunity to stab Epstein in the back, make some money and so he took it.

(31,153 posts)So Trump stopped responding and Musk is retracting. Bannon wants to deport him and Vance is saying there is no way to get back in the MAGA fold.
I'm inclined to think Trump will reembrace him.

But evolution has to be proud of itself today. It has officially proven that anything is possible in nature. You win evolution; you win. /s
