00:00Elon Musk, I felt like I wanted that romance to last it didn't they had a public breakup

00:06It's all gone a bit wrong hasn't it?

00:08Yeah, it went so wrong so quick

00:11So quick and publicly you know nothing worse than a breakup of public as you were saying actually before you said that

00:17The the richest man in the world that was powerful man. Yeah

00:20It's hard for them to share the

00:23But I really wanted them to be friends because I felt like they needed each other but obviously clearly didn't work out

00:28Okay, so

00:30America America first party. I think that's what know the America party original name

00:36But is it just a way of Elon Musk getting back at Donald Trump?

00:40Has he is it just as frustration or do you think he's actually really going to follow through with this?

00:45Well, he's gonna try definitely, but I think I think it is a bit of both it is personal retaliation from Musk towards

00:54President Trump and at the same time there is genuine

00:57genuine

00:59Desire to for for policy change on behalf or on the part of Elon Musk

01:04We shouldn't forget that basically, but I think predominantly it is

01:09retaliation

01:10Musk announced that he will do he will create this party America party just days after the big

01:19tax bill was passed by the Congress and also

01:25He called this bill an insane spending bill because it's going to add 3.4 trillion dollars to the deficit and

01:34Elon Musk has warned repeatedly that this deficit is going to bankrupt the country and this is where

01:40It could be a real policy

01:42or genuine policy

01:44Desire to change the American policy however

01:47Of course President Trump has threatened to cut federal subsidies to Musk's companies like SpaceX and Tesla

01:55He also

01:57retaliated he also

01:59Basically

02:01Basically

02:03Did so many things to hinder

02:05SpaceX as well

02:07Which I think is is quite insane because if you think about the how many satellites that are orbiting the earth?

02:15Apparently America owns 8,000 of those 7,000 are owned by Tesla and in light of the

02:25Space satellite wars between

02:28China and the US it means that

02:31America is shooting itself in the foot basically if it does all the

02:37The policies that that hinder

02:40SpaceX from doing its work

02:42doing its work
