He went after a bill (Big Beautiful Bill) that’s phenomenal. He just — I think he feels very badly that he said that, actually,” the US president was quoted as saying by the New York Post.Trump added, “I was disappointed in him, but, you know, it is what it is,” after Devine said Musk seemed to treat Trump “a bit like a father.”“That happens. Things like that happen. I don’t blame him for anything. I was a little disappointed.”Earlier on Wednesday, Musk also said that he regretted some of the comments he made about Trump last week.“I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week. They went too far,” Musk wrote in a post on X.Their blistering break-up — largely carried out on social media since Thursday last week — was ignited by Musk’s harsh criticism of Trump’s so-called “big, beautiful” spending bill, which is currently being discussed in US Congress.
