New York, (EFE) .- Elon Musk warned Republican legislators who “will lose their primaries next year” if they support the megaproject of the budget law and fiscal cuts of President Donald Trump, which the president wants to ratify this week.
Musk resigned at the end of May as head of efficiency in the White House amid disagreements with Trump for that bill, that the Tesla and Spacex executive considers that the US public debt will increase, something that today again argued through its X account.
“To each member of the Congress that campaigned on reducing government spending and immediately voted for the greatest increase in the debt in history, the face of shame should fall. And they will lose their primaries next year even if it is the last thing he does on this earth,” he wrote.

Musk, who seems to have settled his personal dispute on this issue with Trump, made it clear that he disagrees on the bill, and even mentioned two legislators of the House of Representatives that can be key for the document to come forward.
“How can you be called the Caucus de la Libertad if you vote for a draft law of slavery of debt with the greatest increase in the ceiling of the debt in history?” The businessman published, in a message addressed to representatives Andy Harris, of Maryland, and Chip Roy, of Texas.
The Senate is immersed in the process of amendments to the initiative, which contains key elements of the Trump agenda, such as tax cuts and public spending, and higher funds for migratory defense and control; But it is not clear that the 53 Republican senators will support it.
This Sunday, one of the legislators reluctant to the project, Senator Thom Tillis, of North Carolina, resigned to seek re -election after opposing publicly and awakening Trump’s criticism.
Once the procedure in the Senate has been exceeded, the norm must return to the House of Representatives, where it is also uncertain if the Republican congressmen, who also hold a meager majority in this hemicycle, will approve all the modifications before July 4.
