Elon Musk had a savage response to Donald Trump’s threat to deport him.
Trump and Musk had a huge public falling out over the president’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’.
The Tesla CEO called out Trump on X and things appeared to cool off for a while but it seems they have started up all over again.
Musk has now accused Trump of ‘destroying’ the US, costing citizens millions of jobs and even endangering America’s future. The 54-year-old has even promised to create his own political party if the act passes.
Trump then made a shocking statement about potentially deporting Musk.
Former White House official Steve Bannon called for Musk to be deported and while leaving the White House to attend a immigration detention facility, Trump has claimed he would look into it.
Originally born in South Africa, the president was asked if he would deport the billionaire to which he responded: “I don’t know. We’ll have to take a look.”

TRUMP: "We'll have to take a look. We might have to put DOGE on Elon. You know what DOGE is? The monster that might have to go back and eat Elon. Wouldn’t that be terrible? He gets a lot of subsidies."

But could this actually come to fruition?
If the Secretary of State believes that a person could impact the US’s foreign police, they could be deported.
LegalEagle reported that: “If someone obtains citizenship through fraud, the government might revoke their citizenship. This process is known as denaturalization.”
Now, Musk has hit back at these threats. Taking to X, Musk wrote: “So tempting to escalate this. So, so tempting. But I will refrain from now.”
So tempting to escalate this. So, so tempting. But I will refrain for now.

At this time, it’s not entirely clear what Musk could be hinting at here…
