Elon Musk Vs Trump Twitter War - Elon Accuses Donald Trump Of Being In 'Child Trafficking' Epstein Files; Here Is How It Started

WASHINGTON D.C. — The gloves are off between two of America’s most influential figures. What began as a policy disagreement between Donald Trump and Elon Musk has now exploded into full-blown political warfare — with Musk delivering a bombshell accusation that’s rocked Washington to its core.

In a now-viral post on his own platform X (formerly Twitter), the Tesla and SpaceX CEO wrote:
“Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!”

White House in Shock

Sources inside the West Wing described a scene of disbelief as staffers watched the online war unfold in real time, many sharing updates via group chats. “It’s like a political divorce,” one official said. “We expected drama. But not this nuclear.”

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt swiftly dismissed Musk’s post, calling it the tantrum of a disappointed billionaire.
“This is an unfortunate episode from Elon, who is unhappy with the One Big Beautiful Bill because it does not include the policies he wanted,” she said.
“The president is focused on passing this historic piece of legislation and making our country great again.”

Musk has not yet provided evidence for his explosive claim, but the accusation ties into long-swirling conspiracy theories about government-held documents related to deceased financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Epstein Connection?

Trump has previously been named in unsealed Epstein court documents, though no wrongdoing was ever alleged. One accuser did claim to have met Epstein at a Trump casino in 2016, but confirmed she never encountered Trump himself.

Trump once described Epstein as a “terrific guy” before their relationship soured — a quote that continues to haunt him.

From Policy to Personal

Until now, the feud between the former president and Musk had been mostly policy-driven. Musk has openly criticised Trump’s flagship tax bill, branding it “outrageous” and a “disgusting abomination.”

Trump fired back on Truth Social, accusing Musk of losing his grip after being ousted from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and calling him a victim of “Trump derangement syndrome.”

“I’m very disappointed in Elon,” Trump wrote. “I’ve helped Elon a lot.”

But Musk wasn’t finished. In a series of posts, he blasted the president’s tariff policies, warned of an impending recession, and suggested launching a new centrist political party. He even hinted at pulling the plug on NASA’s only operational crew delivery spacecraft, Dragon, citing Trump’s threats to cancel government contracts.

Market Fallout

The clash has already rattled markets. Tesla shares plummeted by over 14%, wiping $150 billion off the company’s value in a single day.

And while investors hold their breath, political insiders say this feud may permanently reshape the GOP’s power landscape.

“Without me, Trump would have lost the election,” Musk posted. “Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51–49 in the Senate.”

The war of egos, policy, and now personal attacks shows no signs of slowing down — and America is watching every keystroke.
