JD Vance says he understands Elon Musk's frustration but Trump had nothing to do with Epstein.
Vice President JD Vance reacted to Elon Musk's public spat with Donald Trump that unfolded on social media when he was on Theo Von's podcast. Reacting specifically to Elon Musk's allegation against Trump that Trump is there in the Epstein Files and that's why the Trump administration is dragging its feet in releasing all the documents, JD Vance said it was absolutely false.
“First of all, absolutely not. Donald Trump didn't do anything wrong with Jeffrey Epstein. That's totally bs," Vance said. “I'm always going to be loyal to the president. And I hope that eventually Elon kind of comes back into the fold. Maybe that's not possible now because he's gone so nuclear.”“I think it's a huge mistake for him to go after the President like that. It's going to be bad for the country and I don't think it's going to be good for Elon either," JD Vance said.
Elon is an incredible entrepreneur, JD Vance said, adding that his DOGE work has been really good but Elon Musk is new to politics and he got a lot of blowback for his political involvement. "Part of this is that this guy gets into politics and suffered a lot for it. I get the frustration there," JD Vance said adding that the bill which is the center of their fight is good but not perfect and it can be frustrating for a businessman like Elon Musk.
While the Musk-Trump feud took a rest for a day, Elon Musk deleted his most vile post against Trump in which he accused him of being involved with pedophile Epstein -- showing his willingness to repair things with Trump but the president said he is not thinking of Elon and is busy with a lot of work.Instead of further attacking the president, Musk Friday floated the idea of America Party -- a new party to break the two-party system of US politics.
