The Trump-Musk bromance is breaking up and could break America
It was a marriage made in heaven — until it wasn’t.
President Trump and Elon Musk, two titans of ego, united for the cameras and the “greater good.” But like all fairy tales, this one didn’t last. The honeymoon is now officially over.
Barely had Trump announced his artificial intelligence infrastructure project, Stargate, when Musk, his so-called “First Buddy,” slipped into the role of disgruntled spouse.
The White House rollout, featuring SoftBank, OpenAI and Oracle, promised a half-trillion-dollar leap into AI supremacy. “They don’t actually have the money,” Musk sniped on X, his personal soapbox. “SoftBank has well under $10B secured. I have that on good authority.”
Musk’s rapid turn from ally to adversary sends a clear signal: Trump needs to cut ties — before the bromance drags him, and possibly the nation, under.

Musk and Trump are not Batman and Robin. They are........
