Are Musk and Trump fighting?

You may have seen that Elon Musk has criticised a bill brought forward by U.S. President Donald Trump. Musk called Trump’s bill a “disgusting abomination”. 

It comes days after Musk finished up at the White House as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). 

It’s left us with one question: Are Trump and Musk now fighting? And if so, what’s it all about?

We’ll explain what you need to know in today’s podcast.
