From Breitbart: Elon Musk’s criticisms of President Donald Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill are rooted in his allegiance to his companies, the White House’s Principal Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields told The Alex Marlow Show Wednesday.
Musk called Trump’s landmark reconciliation bill a “pork-filled Congressional spending bill” and “a disgusting abomination,” Monday after leaving his government post as a Special Government Employee (GSE) – a designation only permitted to last up to 130 days, which Musk reached.
He later instructed his X followers to reach out to their senators to “kill the bill,” even going so far as using a poster from the Quentin Tarantino film Kill Bill.
Fields told host and Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow that Musk still supports the Trump agenda despite opposing the bill’s elimination green subsidies that benefit his company.
“There’s no daylight between this White House and Elon Musk,” Fields said. “Elon Musk has his priorities, and this White House and this president have their priorities. We may not be aligned on this issue; but let me tell you this, we’re grateful to Elon Musk for the work that he was able to do for this administration.”
“Two things can be true at the same time,” Fields said. “Elon Musk now is not an [special Government employee], he’s a CEO, and he’s focusing on his company, and what would be good for his company. He is doing what a CEO has to do.
“But let me tell you this President Trump is the CEO of this country, and he owes it to the American people to pass one big, beautiful bill.”
