According to the Wall Street Journal, after Musk criticized the Republican Party's massive tax and spending bill, Trump seems to have lost patience with Musk. At the same time, Musk is annoyed by Trump's decision to withdraw the nomination of an important ally to lead NASA. A senior White House official said that Trump was unhappy with Musk's decision to criticize the bill he signed, stating that the president was confused by Musk's decision to increase criticism after working closely with him for four months. The official stated that Trump's senior advisers were caught off guard by Musk's latest offensive. According to insiders, the White House's recent rejection of Trump's nomination for NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman has also strained the unstable alliance between the two. A person with direct knowledge of the matter said that this decision angered Musk, who complained to colleagues over the weekend that he donated hundreds of millions of dollars to help Trump win last year's election, only to see Isaacman's nomination canceled. People close to Musk say that his disappointment with the NASA incident made him more willing to actively criticize the tax bill.
