Trump: 'I Am Extremely Disappointed'
U.S. President Donald Trump has told reporters that he is "extremely disappointed" with billionaire Elon Musk, as the tech mogul has publicly criticized the Republican-backed package regarding forecasts of increasing the budget deficit, according to NBC News.
"He knew the internal processes of that bill better than anyone currently in the White House," the President stated.
Trump also noted that Musk "only faced problems when he learned that we would have to reduce the usage of electric vehicles." Additionally, Musk had labeled Trump’s federal spending reduction bill as "disgusting," pointing out that under this bill, the U.S. budget deficit could rise to $2.5 trillion and that American citizens would begin to accumulate debts.
