Elon Musk has deleted a tweet in which he alleged that Donald Trump was “in the Epstein files”.
The social media post was written on Thursday during a fierce war of words between the tech billionaire and the US president, marking an abrupt end to their close alliance after a dispute over Mr Trump’s flagship spending Bill .
As the disagreement escalated, Mr Musk also suggested that his former boss should be removed from office .
“The Epstein files” is a phrase colloquially used to describe intelligence US authorities hold on Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced paedophile, who died in 2019.
“Time to drop the really big bomb: Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public,” Mr Musk wrote, before adding: “Have a nice day, DJT!”
