Why did Elon Musk claim Donald Trump is ‘in the Epstein files’?

The relationship between the US President and Tesla's CEO has descended into threats, abuse and accusations. A disagreement over the merits of Trump’s tax and spending legislation has turned into a dramatic feud, with Trump saying he was “surprised” at Musk’s criticism of his “big, beautiful” bill. “Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore,” Trump told reporters in the White House on Thursday after the Tesla-founder ramped up his criticism of the President’s economic agenda, describing the bill, currently working its way through Congress, as a “disgusting abomination”. Trump claimed that Musk was angered by the removal of subsidies for electric vehicles, which could affect Tesla. Musk denied this was the case and said his opposition to the bill was down to its impact on US government debt.
