New Enemy: Former President Donald Trump is known for going after people on social media. On Tuesday night he picked a new target in Elon Musk.
Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc TSLA recently said that it was not true that he voted for Trump in the presidential election.
Trump posted a photo of him and Musk on his social media app, Truth Social, with a caption calling out the Tesla CEO. The former president said Musk would have dropped down to his knees and begged had Trump asked him to.
Truth Social's parent company Trump Media & Technology Group is set to become a publicly traded company through a SPAC deal with Digital World Acquisition Corp DWAC.
Trump also took aim at Tesla cars, saying they don’t drive far enough and that they cause crashes. Trump also called out SpaceX, saying Musk’s rockets go nowhere.
The feud between two of the most polarizing figures has escalated in the past few days, with Trump earlier calling Musk a “bulls**t artist.” Musk said it was time for Trump to “sail into the sunset.”
