Donald Trump on Saturday said there would be “serious consequences” if tech mogul Elon Musk funds Democratic candidates to run against Republicans who vote in favor of the GOP’s sweeping budget bill.

“If he does, he’ll have to pay the consequences for that,” Trump told NBC News in a phone interview, but declined to share what those consequences would be.

“He’ll have to pay very serious consequences if he does that,” he added.

Trump also said he has no desire to repair his relationship with Musk after a feud between the two men erupted into public view earlier this week.

      Amen, fellow MAGA! Let’s also block his ability to fund the Dems with a campaign finance reform amendment! Then, when we really have Musk on the ropes, we’ll hit him with a one-two punch, overturning citizens united and codifying the fairness doctrine into law. If he thinks he can steal the next election, he’s got another thing coming! We’ll slam him by replacing the electoral college with a ranked choice voting (or other better) system! He’ll never know what hit him!

      [Me, to myself]: “God, I hope this works.”
