Forrest Gump reports on the surprising fall-out between Trump and Musk, from buddies to online enemies, faster than you can say 'box of chocolates'.

Like a Bolt of Lightning (or a Rocket Launch)

Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates you never know what you're gonna get. And let me tell you this here story about Mr. Trump and Mr. Musk is one of those unexpected chocolates maybe one with that coconut filling nobody likes. Seems like just yesterday these two were thicker than peanut butter and jelly. Mr. Musk endorsed Mr. Trump after that shooting incident said he hoped he'd get better real quick. Like Jenny when she got sick you just wanted them to get better.

X Marks the Spot (for Trouble)

Then there was all that business on that Twitter thing now it's called X Mr. Musk owns it. They had a chat but it didn't start too good had some technical difficulties like Bubba trying to explain all the ways to cook shrimp. But they talked about important stuff like Kamala Harris and climate change and Mr. Musk even wanted to be part of the government. He even wore a 'Make America Great Again' hat said Mr. Trump was the only one who could save democracy. I reckon that was a sign of good things to come like when Lieutenant Dan invested in Apple.

DOGE Days Are Here!

Then Mr. Trump got re elected and wouldn't you know it he put Mr. Musk in charge of DOGE that's the Department of Government Efficiency with that other fella Mr. Ramaswamy. Mr. Trump said they were gonna cut spending and get rid of all that government stuff. Mr. Musk's mama even said they looked like they were having fun. And Mr. Trump even went to see one of Mr. Musk's rockets launch said Mr. Musk was a 'new star'. Reminded me of when I was a football star running faster than the wind.

Cost Cutting and Car Showrooms

Mr. Musk got right to work cuttin' costs and makin' folks go back to the office. But some folks got upset said he was reachin' too far like when Bubba ate all the shrimp on the boat. But Mr. Trump stuck up for him even turned the White House lawn into a Tesla showroom said they were 'beautiful' and he'd buy one. Like when I showed Mama my Medal of Honor you gotta be proud of your friends.

The Bill Comes Due

Then things started goin' south faster than a greased pig at a county fair. Mr. Musk said he was gonna spend less time on DOGE and folks started worryin' about his other companies like Tesla. And when Tesla didn't do so good Mr. Musk blamed Mr. Trump's spending bill said it was makin' things worse. Like when Jenny ran away again you just felt disappointed.

The Gloves Come Off (Online)

Well Mr. Trump didn't take too kindly to that and soon enough they were fightin' online like two dogs over a bone. Mr. Musk called the spending bill a 'disgusting abomination' and Mr. Trump threatened to take away government money from Mr. Musk's companies. Mr. Trump even said he didn't know if they were still friends. It was like when Jenny left me and all I could say was 'Jenny?' Seems like sometimes no matter how much you like peas and carrots they just don't mix anymore. And that's all I have to say about that.
