According to Michael Wolff, Donald Trump is reportedly claiming credit for tipping off The New York Times about Elon Musk’s alleged drug use, specifically ketamine, and other substances, as reported in May. Trump has been making disparaging remarks about Musk during phone calls with associates, fueled by the Tesla and SpaceX CEO’s opposition to a spending bill Trump is championing. This ongoing feud, and Musk’s threat to form a new political party, has intensified the conflict between the two, with Trump even suggesting Musk’s government subsidies could be jeopardized.
