Elon Musk Slams Trump’s Spending and Tax Cuts Bill, Calls It “Vile and Disgraceful

Washington:Billionaire entrepreneur and former Trump administration advisor **Elon Musk** has sharply criticized the **tax cuts and spending bill** recently backed by **former U.S. President Donald Trump**, calling it a **“vile and disgraceful act.”**

In a strongly worded statement, Musk declared that he **”can no longer tolerate Trump’s cuts and spending policies”**, and expressed deep disappointment over the **fiscal direction** being promoted under the Trump-backed legislation.

> “Those who voted in favor of this bill should be ashamed of themselves,” Musk said, referring to members of Congress who supported the controversial proposal.

Musk’s comments come just days after he **resigned from his official advisory role** in the Trump administration due to growing **policy disagreements**. Previously, Trump had entrusted Musk with a key position overseeing **government spending reforms** — a responsibility Musk has now renounced.

In response to the criticism, former President **Donald Trump** issued a brief statement, downplaying the fallout, saying:

> “Elon Musk will always be with us.”

The split marks a **notable rupture** between two influential figures in American politics and business, with Musk positioning himself increasingly as a critic of **uncontrolled federal spending** and **tax policies favoring the wealthy**.

Analysts say Musk’s remarks could influence **public opinion** as well as the **business community’s stance** on future Trump-led fiscal initiatives.
