Elon Musk slammed for calling Trump's 'big, beautiful' bill 'disgusting abomination' days after DOGE exit

WASHINGTON, DC: In a blistering critique, Elon Musk has branded President Donald Trump’s 'Big Beautiful Bill' a "disgusting abomination," marking his first public clash with the administration since his abrupt departure last week.
The controversial ‘Big, Beautiful’ budget bill, which cleared the House of Representatives last month, offers trillions in tax breaks, boosts defense spending, and greenlights increased government borrowing.
Musk, who led a cost-cutting task force known as DOGE for 129 days, had earlier described the plan as merely "disappointing"; however, his latest remarks signal a dramatic escalation in tone.
I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore.

This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.
Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.

Elon Musk urges voters to fire politicians who support the legislation

Elon Musk intensified his criticism of the Republican Party on Tuesday, June 3, blasting lawmakers for pushing President Donald Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful’ budget bill.
In a series of fiery posts on X, Musk urged voters to “fire” every politician who supported the legislation, which he views as a betrayal of public trust.
Responding to a viral post slamming the GOP for alleged hypocrisy and wasteful spending, including luxury hotel stays in Ukraine and a lack of budget cuts, Musk echoed the outrage, writing: “In November next year, we fire all politicians who betrayed the American people.”

The viral post accused Republicans of prioritizing vacations and neglecting promised reforms, asking, “Ok let me just get this straight… the GOP are out there: 1. spending millions on luxury hotels in Ukraine. 2. not voting on any DOGE cuts, 3. spending 60% of their time on vacation, 4. not codifying executive orders. Is this the “major reform” the American people voted for?” Musk’s response underscored his growing frustration with the party’s leadership and spending priorities.

The White House, through Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, reaffirmed President Trump’s unwavering support for the controversial spending bill, despite Elon Musk’s sharp criticism.
When Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy asked how Trump would respond to Musk’s opposition, Leavitt dismissed any surprise, saying, “The President already knows where Elon Musk stood on this bill.”
She went on to defend the legislation, calling it “one big, beautiful bill,” and emphasized that “he’s sticking to it.” Leavitt made it clear that Trump remains firmly committed to the bill and its provisions.
What could be the reason behind Elon Musk's sudden shift in stance toward Donald Trump?

Elon Musk’s abrupt shift in stance toward President Donald Trump, particularly his opposition to the 'One Big Beautiful Bill', appears driven by concerns over fiscal responsibility and conflicting policy priorities.
As the former head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Musk was charged with cutting wasteful government spending. He now contends that the bill’s measures—such as extending tax cuts, boosting defense budgets, and increasing the debt ceiling—directly contradict DOGE’s mission and further inflate the national deficit, as per ABC News.
Musk's criticism marks a notable turning point in his relationship with Trump and underscores a widening rift within the Republican Party over fiscal policy and governance. His pointed remarks on social media came just days after stepping down from his role at DOGE on May 30, 2025. Despite his departure, Musk has expressed hope that the department’s work will continue to shape federal operations.
