Former U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday blasted Elon Musk, the chief executive of electric car giant Tesla, for inconsistencies in his words and deeds.

In late April, Elon Musk, the CEO of electric car giant Tesla, officially announced as Twitter's new boss to buy the social media platform for $54.20 per share (about $44 billion).

However, the deal with Twitter stalled further in July, with Musk warning that he could back out of the acquisition. Elon Musk and the potential owner of social media giant Twitter have filed a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, noting that it may exercise its right not to close the Twitter deal.

Mr. Trump called The Twitter Inc. deal that Mr. Musk struck but later decided to back out "rotten."

Florida Gov. DeSantis is favored by Elon Musk as the Republican nominee for the 2024 presidential election, but Elon Musk has publicly announced that he had never voted Republican until June of this year.

As a celebrity with more than 100 million followers on Twitter, Elon Musk's influence cannot be underestimated.

Mr. Desantis is Mr. Trump's strongest potential rival for the Republican nomination. Trump expressed dissatisfaction with the content of musk told his contradictory and launched a series of rude comments.

 

Musk said in a June 21 interview with Bloomberg News that he would invest between $20 million and $25 million in backed candidates and said: "I haven't decided yet whether to run in this election."

On June 8, Former US President Donald Trump resurfaces with the public again. However, this time, Trump came for Bitcoin (BTC) and said he doesn't like Bitcoin, calling it a scam.

Unlike core Wall Street players, the latest comments showed that Donald Trump's stance, a business mogul and billionaire, has not changed over time.
