The President of the USA, Donald Trump, announced that he has resumed contact with Elon Musk, mentioning that they have discussed "from time to time" after the meeting at the funeral of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Trump stated that their relationship is now "good" and emphasized that he has always appreciated Musk, even though he had a "bad period".
This statement comes after a summer full of conflicts between the two, who exchanged insults and political threats. Musk suggested that he might support candidates against Republicans and even proposed the establishment of a new party, which provoked Trump's reaction. Their rapprochement could have significant implications for the 2026 and 2028 elections, considering Musk's influence over conservative media and his potential to influence electoral campaigns through donations.
