Earlier today, President Trump signed bills canceling EV and fuel mandates. He used the opportunity to call Elon Musk his “friend,” and to praise him for supporting him, even after he knew he’d abolish the mandates.
President Trump said he told Elon what he was going to do and Elon said it was fine as long as it is for everyone and he can compete.
“That was very cool,” Trump said.
He praised Elon for never asking for favors. Trump is essentially taking back what he said in anger that Elon might be angry about the EV mandates.
BREAKING: President Trump calls Elon Musk a friend.
"I was amazed that Elon is endorsing me, because I was abolishing EV mandate. Once I asked him, he said as long as it's happening to everybody, I'll be able to compete. It was a very honest answer. He's very friend of mine" pic.twitter.com/2S4h5Kvfp7

This is how transparent the Trump Administration truly is! We get to watch the family fight then make up. This is great news!
I find it disdusting that so many in the media make a big deal of arguments between people. To often in reporting “news” they create problems insteaed of helping build resolutions. I guess it shows most of the media do not love or country and want theings to grow and improve.
