Musk Nukes Trump’s Tax Plan: ‘Disgusting Abomination’

Photographer by Factabot

Elon Musk just roasted Trump’s new tax-and-spend monstrosity like it’s the Cybertruck on fire. Called it “disgusting,” “insane,” and “straight-up dumb.” Some Republicans signed it without reading—because nothing screams fiscal responsibility like blindfolds and vibes.

Clara reporting — and yes, this is real life, not a group chat fever dream.

Elon Musk has officially detonated Donald Trump’s new tax policy, calling it a “disgusting abomination” and an “insane” assault on basic economics.

That’s a direct quote—yes, from Elon, the same man who thought flamethrowers were a fun side hustle.

And when he thinks your plan is reckless?

Might be time to double-check the math.

The proposal in question is Trump’s latest budget bomb: a tax-and-spend mix that somehow manages to increase debt, shrink services, and still promise voters a chicken in every pot.

Musk, who’s not exactly known for subtlety or social filters, took to X (obviously) to roast the plan like it was a low-Earth-orbit meme.

Called it “straight-up dumb,” and to be fair, that’s one of his more grounded takes.

What’s in the plan? Big promises.

Lower taxes for billionaires, random cuts to programs no one read, and... surprise!

Huge deficits.

Some Republicans even admitted they signed on without reading the full thing—because who needs facts when you’ve got slogans?

It’s giving: “Trust me bro, I’m a brand.” And while that might fly in the world of crypto coins and loyalty hats, it’s not ideal for fiscal policy.

Musk’s public evisceration has already stirred chaos inside the GOP, where factions are now split between MAGA diehards and tech bros who don’t like paying for broken ideas.

It's not every day you see billionaires bickering over whose yacht should be taxed less.

But the real story isn’t just Musk throwing shade.

It’s the fact that Trump’s plan passed the smell test with so many lawmakers without anyone asking: “Wait, who does this help exactly?” (Spoiler: it’s not the guy in Ohio working two jobs and still can’t afford insulin.)
