US House Speaker Johnson expresses hope Trump and Musk reconcile

Jun 09, 2025

Washington [US], June 9: US House Speaker, member of the Republican party Mike Johnson expressed hope on Sunday that US President Donald Trump and US billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk reconcile.
"Hopefully these, these two titans can reconcile. I think the president's head is in the right place. And he said a couple of days ago he's moving on, because he must. He has a huge number of responsibilities on his plate, and he can't get caught up in a Twitter war," Johnson told the ABC broadcaster, commenting on the spat between Trump and Musk.
A bitter online exchange unfolded on Thursday between Trump and Musk, with the latter claiming that the president would have lost the 2024 election without his support and that the Democrats would have controlled the House. Musk has been vocally critical of Trump's One Big, Beautiful Bill on tax cuts and government borrowing limits. (Agencies)
