→Musk disagreement with Trump
is fairly simple to understand. The $190 billion (of the $2 Trillion targeted) is just a band-aid to help [[Bessent]] make interest payments for a few months. Yes, there are some permanent underlying reforms, but still not anywhere near what's needed. The [[Big Beautiful Bill]] maintains most of those abusive spending habits. Why? As a foreign born, Musk doesn't understand US politics. Radical reform can't be implemented before the [[2026 midterms]]. It'll cut [[middle class welfare]] and provoke a backlash among voters. Spending reform has to be implemented incrementally.

Musk's disagreement is really with [[Congress]], who wouldn't vote for such radical reforms and budget cuts before the midterms anyway. Trump understands the realities. Musk's dreams are what I'd call "pie in the sky conservativism" being that he's a foreigner and hasn't really experienced up close the American political systems and its traditions.
