Elon Musk Blasts Trump Tax Bill as Budget-Busting ‘Abomination’

Trump Tries to Sway GOP Senators to Embrace Tax Bill

Donald Trump ally Elon Musk lambasted the president’s signature tax bill as a budget-busting “abomination” as Republican fiscal hawks stepped up criticism of the massive fiscal package.

The tech titan’s public condemnation pits him against the president at a critical time as Trump is personally lobbying holdouts on the bill. The remarks could stiffen resistance and delay enactment of the tax cuts and debt ceiling increase.
