‘Disgusting Abomination’: Elon Musk Blasts Donald Trump’s Policy Bill Days After Quitting White House Role

Washington: Days after leaving his role in the White House, billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk criticised US President Donald Trump's Tax and Domestic Policy Bill, calling it a “disgusting abomination”. Taking to X, Musk lashed out at the members of Congress who voted for the bill, saying, “Shame on those who voted for it: you know you made a mistake.”

In a post on X, Elon Musk said on Tuesday, "I'm sorry, but I can't stand it anymore. This gigantic, Democrat, pocket-filled congressional expenditure office is an abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you made a mistake. You know."

Musk's statement came up at a time when Trump is working to push through the bill in the Senate that he called his "big, beautiful bill" after it passed the House along party lines last month. The bill would extend Trump's 2017 tax cuts, enact new tax breaks for tipped wages and overtime, reform Medicaid and food stamps and put more money into Trump's immigrant deportation plan.

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the bill would add $3.8 trillion to the national debt over the next 10 years. Musk left the White House last week, where he had been leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) for the past four months. Before signing, Musk said in an interview with CBS that he was "disappointed" with Trump's reconciliation bill, arguing that it would increase the deficit and "undermine" the work being done by DOGE.

Meanwhile, Musk's statement has once again created a stir in the political corridors, with both his supporters and opponents considering this statement important. According to the Tesla CEO, the bill is not only economically harmful, but it can also be dangerous for the country.

His statement after leaving the White House is considered the beginning of a new political demography. The analysts believed that Musk has always made headlines with his statements and actions, and now his focus can be completely on his companies and projects.

In the meantime, Donald Trump's bill, which is already in controversy, may face more challenges after criticism from an influential person like Elon Musk.
