Most people have been asking, “What does JD Vance think about Musk and Trump’s big public feud?”
Well, now we have our answer.
The feud broke out during Vance’s interview with comedian Theo Von.
Theo Von was the first to see Musk’s numerous attacks against Trump, and Von asked Vance what his reaction was to it all.
KSAT covered the story in more depth:
Vice President JD Vance said Elon Musk was making a “huge mistake” going after President Donald Trump in a storm of bitter and inflammatory social media posts after a falling out between the two men.
But the vice president, in an interview released Friday after the very public blow up between the world’s richest man and arguably the world’s most powerful, also tried to downplay Musk’s blistering attacks as an “emotional guy” who got frustrated.
“I hope that eventually Elon comes back into the fold. Maybe that’s not possible now because he’s gone so nuclear,” Vance said.
Vance’s comments come as other Republicans in recent days have urged the two men, who months ago were close allies spending significant time together, to mend fences.
Musk’s torrent of social media posts attacking Trump came as the president portrayed him as disgruntled and “CRAZY” and threatened to cut the government contracts held by his businesses.Musk, who runs electric vehicle maker Tesla, internet company Starlink and rocket company SpaceX, lambasted Trump’s centerpiece tax cuts and spending bill but also suggested Trump should be impeached and claimed without evidence that the government was concealing information about the president’s association with infamous pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
“Look, it happens to everybody,” Vance said in the interview. “I’ve flown off the handle way worse than Elon Musk did in the last 24 hours.”
Watch Vance here:
Vice President Vance went on Theo Von’s show just moments after the Epstein allegations from Elon, and as always, he handled the situation with incredible poise and authenticity:
“First of all, absolutely not. Donald Trump didn’t do anything wrong with Jeffrey Epstein.”
