Trump on Elon Musk: “We Might Have to Put DOGE on Him”

Follow @thesocialtalks Former President Donald Trump reignited his public feud with Elon Musk on July 1, 2025, following Musk's sharp criticism of Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill.” When asked whether he would consider deporting Musk, Trump replied, “We’ll have to take a look,” then added a dramatic twist: “We might have to put DOGE on Elon. You know what DOGE is? DOGE is the monster that might have to go back and eat Elon.” He further accused Musk of relying heavily on government subsidies, hinting that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)—which Musk once led—could probe Musk’s businesses, potentially stripping support and even challenging his citizenship status.
