Internet users had a field day on Friday as Elon Musk and Donald Trump made their conflict public.

New York Post had a fun take on the spat, similar to Goenka's. Here's what their front page looked like today:

“Modi ji should announce a ceasefire between Musk & Trump,” a user said, referring to the US President's announcement of India and Pakistan coming to an understanding during their conflict even before the countries did it themselves.

“Zelensky demands ceasefire between Trump and Elon,” one user added.

“It's great that Musk Vs Trump is free-to-air and not pay-per-view, so we can all enjoy it. #MuskVsTrump,” another user said.

A third user posted a picture of a burning Tesla in front of Trump Plaza.

Days after their Oval Office meeting, Musk escalated his previously restrained criticism of Trump's “big, beautiful bill", the president's top congressional priority.

He continued to make jibes at the budget bill that the President is endorsing, the peak of which was reached on Thursday. He kept sharing old tweets of Trump with contradictory views from now, which finally prompted the Republican leader to speak out.

“Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore,” Trump said at the Oval Office on Friday, admitting he was “very disappointed” in the Tesla CEO.

The war of words escalated rapidly from there. It all played out on their respective social media platforms, with Musk posting on X and Trump on Truth Social.

Musk dismissed Trump's criticism. “Whatever,” he wrote.

He also claimed that Trump would not have won the election without him.

“Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate," Musk posted, a reference to Musk's record political spending last year, which topped $250 million.

“Such ingratitude,” he added.

Trump claimed that Musk was mad that Trump was changing electric vehicle policies in ways that would financially harm Musk-led Tesla.

Things did not settle down as Elon Musk went a notch higher.

“Time to drop the really big bomb: Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!” Musk said.

When an X user suggested Trump be impeached and replaced by Vice President JD Vance, Musk agreed.

“Yes,” he wrote.

Reports claimed that White House aides of Trump arranged for a private talk between the President and Musk on Thursday, but the former said he was “not interested”.
