By turning the Epstein conspiracy against Trump, the CEO of Tesla cracked the MAGA base, and now the movement that once worshipped the U.S. president is starting to rebel.

Tech billionaire Elon Musk piled on to ongoing MAGA outrage against President Donald Trump and his administration in a late-night posting spree over their handling of the Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking case.

It was Musk himself who wrenched the Epstein affair back into public consciousness during his first open spat with Trump in June. In a now-deleted X post, Musk wrote, “@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public.” Trump has not been officially accused of any wrongdoing connected to Epstein.
