Tesla CEO Elon Musk appeared to backtrack early Wednesday Morning on comments he posted on X while feuding with President Donald Trump on social media earlier in June.
Trump and Musk exchanged remarks via posts on their social media platforms stemming from Musk’s criticism of the reconciliation bill making its way through Congress. The Tesla CEO’s tone softened in a brief post made at 3:04 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time Wednesday.
“I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week,” Musk said. “They went too far.”
Musk criticized the reconciliation bill over projections by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) that estimated the bill would increase the deficit by $2.4 trillion over ten years.
Musk stepped down as a White House senior advisor at the end of May after leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) after Trump established it in a Jan. 20 executive order.
DOGE identified $180 billion in savings since Trump established it, an average of $1,118.01 per taxpayer, according to the organization’s website. The department lists the savings it has identified on its website, breaking it down into contracts, leases and grants and also breaks down the spending, while providing information on the federal workforce and government regulations.
