BlockBeats News, June 8th. On June 7th, the U.S. Rolling Stone magazine reported with the title "We Are Taking Away Elon's Friends" that the Trump team is settling Musk's "betrayal" in a manner of "political divorce," according to a senior White House official. The official revealed that if Musk wants to mend the relationship, he needs to show an unprecedented level of humility.
The Rolling Stone magazine's report stated that the public rift that started on June 5th has evolved into a brutal test of allegiance. White House staff has started reaching out to mutual allies of both sides, including major party donors and conservative celebrities, asking them to pick sides. Pastor Darrell Scott, who has been advising Trump since 2016, said: "There is really no choice at all. I will always stand with Trump, and I don't think Elon can handle this situation." Furthermore, several Trump administration officials confirmed that after the news of the rift went public, messages of loyalty from business and political elites flooded the Trump team. Under tremendous pressure, Musk has started deleting tweets criticizing Trump. An official mentioned that the "federal government can restart investigations at any time," indicating the controversies sparked by Musk during his time leading the Department of Efficiency. (Jin10)
