Elon Musk DELETES Post On X Claiming President Trump Is In The Epstein Files

Could this be a sign of Elon Musk extending an olive branch?

On Thursday, Elon Musk posted on X without any evidence that President Trump was in the Epstein Files, which is why his administration has yet to release them in full.

Now, it appears Musk has walked back his statement after deleting the post.

ABC had more details on teh story:

Elon Musk has deleted an allegation linking Donald Trump with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein that he posted on social media this week.

The tech billionaire alleged on Thursday that the Republican leader is featured in secret government files on former associates of Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while he faced sex trafficking charges.

The Trump administration has acknowledged it is reviewing tens of thousands of documents, videos and investigative material that his “MAGA” movement says will unmask public figures complicit in Epstein’s crimes.

“Time to drop the really big bomb: (Trump) is in the Epstein files,” Musk posted on his social media platform X, as his growing feud with the president boiled over into a spectacularly public row.

“That is the real reason they have not been made public.”

Mr Musk did not reveal which files he was talking about, and offered no evidence for his claim.

In fact, he wrote in a follow-up message: “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.”

However, he appeared to have deleted both tweets by Saturday morning.

Here’s how social media reacted:

🚨 | BREAKING: Elon Musk quietly deletes his smear against President Trump.

Now all that’s left is silence and a man who deserves a public apology.

You don’t get to baselessly drag the *47th PRESIDENT* into Epstein filth and walk away like it was a joke.

It’s going to take more than deleting posts on X to heal this friendship.

Many users on X have called for Musk to apologize:

🚨BREAKING: Jeffrey Epstein’s lawyer confirms that Epstein had no damaging information on Donald Trump.

Elon Musk needs to publicly admit that in a fit of rage he lied about Donald Trump.

And he needs to apologize to Trump. pic.twitter.com/AUYe5uwIpU

Elon Musk has to apologize to President Trump for two things.

First, randomly calling for the impeachment of the duly elected President of the United States over a policy disagreement.

That’s not OK. I mean, at least the Democrats had the common courtesy of making up the… pic.twitter.com/JGLTIhwSNr
