US President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk have had a complex relationship over the years, but they seem to have reconciled recently. Earlier, Musk voiced support for Hillary Clinton’s economic plans before criticizing Trump’s character. Despite this, Trump praised Musk as a genius and emphasized the importance of cherishing brilliant minds like his.
The two later collaborated on Musk’s “DOGE” initiative, with conflicting reports on its financial impact. Their alliance faced a setback when Musk criticized Trump’s policies, leading to a public disagreement. However, their differences seemed to vanish following the tragic death of Christian Conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Both Trump and Musk attended Kirk’s funeral, where they exchanged friendly words and gestures. Trump expressed his interest in rekindling their relationship, indicating that he missed their interactions. The conversation also touched on potential collaborations, including organizing a UFC event at the White House to commemorate the Declaration of Independence’s 250th anniversary.
The event, featuring renowned MMA star Conor McGregor, is expected to be organized by Dana White. Trump praised White’s efforts and the upcoming tournament, highlighting the significance of the occasion. The meeting between Trump and Musk at Kirk’s funeral marked a potential reconciliation between the two influential figures.
