In an interview with NBC News, the president also said he assumes his relationship with the tech billionaire is over following their recent falling out.

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.

    “They would have been worse! Kamala would have had higher tariffs!!” - my dad. He doesn’t believe me that tariffs are only a Trump thing… he doesn’t even watch fox. He mostly listens to news from Russia and Ukraine. And that guy on YouTube who sounds like a cartoon character.

      A person in my neighborhood still has a TRUMP LOW PRICES KAMALA HIGH PRICES sign in their front yard, albeit partially hidden behind a bush. Unremarkable except they’re black and living in a subsidized housing development. You just can’t make shit like this up.

      That doesn’t really narrow it down much…
