Trump did not directly address Musk’s claim concerning Epstein files.
However, during a Meeting with the German Chancellor Friedrich Merz at the White House Thursday, Trump said that he was “very disappointed” by Musk’s criticism with regard to the budget bill and suggested that Musk’s opposition was due to the elimination of electric vehicle subsidies.

Trump also threatened to terminate federal contracts and subsidies for Musk companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, declaring that this would allow the US government to billions of dollars.
What do we know about Trump’s relationship with Epstein?
Trump and Epstein were knowledge in the 80s and 1990s, often seen on social occasions together in New York and Palm Beach, Florida. Their appearances together were documented in the coverage of news and social pages at the time, while the American media reported that the two came closer in the 1990s, when Epstein bought a manor near the compound of Mar-A-Lago from Trump to Palm Beach.
A 1992 video published by NBC News shows Trump and Epstein socializing and watching dancers during an organized party In Mar-A-Lago.
In a 2002 profile of Epstein by New York magazine, Trump was mentioned describing Epstein as a “formidable guy” who appreciated the company of beautiful women “on the youngest side”.
“I have known Jeff for 15 years. A great guy. He is very fun to be. He is even said that he loves beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the youngest side,” said Trump.
The flight newspapers published during legal proceedings against Maxwell show that Trump stole the private Epstein jet at least seven times between 1993 and 1997, sometimes with family members.
Epstein’s “Black Book” – a directory of contacts obtained in 2015 by Gawker, an American blog now disappeared that covered celebrities and the media – was then submitted as judicial evidence and listed several telephone numbers and addresses for Trump, including his office, his house and Mar -A -Lago.
What’s going on now?
Once allied, Musk’s relationship with Trump has deteriorated considerably since his Trump review fiscal policy and subsequent allegations concerning Epstein files.
Trump threats to reduce federal contracts with musk companies 14% decrease in Tesla’s equity value. Musk has since called for the dismissal and replacement of Trump with the American vice-president JD Vance.
This public spit also drew the attention of political figures, some Democrats demanding the release of the complete Epstein files and wondering if they are refused due to potential implications for Trump.
