President Donald Trump is “not interested” in having a call with Tesla CEO Elon Musk to resolve their feud, a senior White House official told NBC News on Friday morning.
The two billionaires launched a war of words Thursday over Musk’s continued criticism of Trump’s proposed tax bill.
Trump said that Musk — who until a week ago was one of his top government advisors — had gone “crazy,” and threatened to kill federal contracts with his companies, which include SpaceX.
Musk, in turn, said Trump could not have been elected president without his massive financial support, and also said that SpaceX would decommission its Dragon spacecraft, the only current U.S. method of transporting crew to and from the International Space Station. Musk later said he would not decommission Dragon.
Trump’s chief of staff, Susie Wiles, separately told NBC News on Friday that “there are no plans for that today,” when asked about a report by Politico that White House aides “scheduled a call Friday with the billionaire CEO of Tesla to broker a peace.”
But an administration official told NBC, “There could be anything — I’d like to de-escalate a very unfortunate situation.”
“There are no calls on the books, at least not now,” the official said.
