It is a notice for the rest of the millionaires who supported him

A little over eight months ago, Elon Musk self -demonstrated “Donald Trump’s first friend” after his re -election as US president. He Cross anxyper That both Musk and Trump dedicated themselves in public leaves no doubt that he has now become “the first former friend.”

However, the important thing is not so much what both millionaires said openly, but the evening warning that Trump made to the rest of Millionaires who have supported him From his investiture: “Or with me or against me.”

Musk’s “One More Thing”. After weeks of rumorslast week Donald Trump and Elon Musk made official the departure of the South African millionaire at the head of the Doge with A ceremony in the Oval Office in which Musk’s work was praised in the first hundred days of mandate.

Then, and in the purest style of Steve Jobs, Musk raised his “One More Thing” before closing that stage and lasted hard against the new tax cut law (known as “One Big Beautiful Bill”) qualifying itof “disgusting abomination.” The fuse had lit and it was a matter of time that everything jump through the air.

The World Cup was mounted. Following Musk’s criticism escalation to the fiscal megaley, among its measures contemplated the Subsidy cut For the electric car, Trump began Your offensive against Musk. Musk’s response came from his social network attributing the Merit of Electoral Victory Trump and threatening with dismantle the dragon capsule that NASA has been using astronauts to the space station.

However, the high point came when Tesla’s CEO accused the president of appearing on the list of Jeffrey Epstein. Musk even asked his followers If you should found a new party to oppose Trump’s measures.

The evening warning. Elon Musk was the Trump’s main validboth during his presidential campaign and in minor elections, contributing hundreds of millions of dollars that distributed To win the electorateand favor Trump’s political interests.

However, that has not been an obstacle for Trump to defnert without flinching to such a powerful ally. ¿What would I be able to do With other millionaires who have not had a relationship as narrow as the one he has had with Musk?

Jeff Bezos has already received the message. A few weeks ago a working document was leaked in which Amazon employees considered the possibility of breaking down the price increase of tariffs imposed by Trump in their products. From the White House they did not hesitate to get the artillery against Bezos.

Karoline Leavitt, Trump government spokesman, accused To the company of “A hostile and political act by Amazon”, and lashed out at Jeff Bezos accusing him of being “the arm of the Chinese propaganda” while showing a photo of the millionaire leading an article in which he was accused of censoring the reviews of a book with the speeches of the Chinese president Xi Jinping. A call from Donald Trump to Bezos would be enough for the millionaire to recular and the company recovered the value of actions that They had collapsed before presidential threats.

Apple managed a tense calm. Tim Cook was another of the millionaires who witnessed Trump’s possession in the front line. Months later, Apple felt the pressure of Trump’s economic policies. The president would apply A 25% tariff To technological ones who do not manufacture in the US.

To appease Trump’s fury, Apple He promised to invest 500,000 million dollars in the United States over the next four years in return, since it was materially impossible to relocate the production of its short -term smartphones. With this, both parties sealed a tense calm without major consequences … at least temporarily.

Mark Zuckerberg is not in prison. With regard to Mark Zuckerberg, the millionaire has not yet entered prison, which is already a lot since Donald Trump spent part of his campaign threatening with imprisonment “For life” to the meta founder.

In return, the millionaire has not only provided financial support to Trump’s investiture, but has been one of the first to fly a flying Its labor policies of diversity, equality and inclusion in goal, but also aligned the functioning of its social network to Trump’s wishes. What the meta founder has not been able to get rid of the debate about whether Goal is a monopoly. Emalisting with Trump could make that delicate scale get against him and end up dismembering the goal.
