Elon Musk and President Donald Trump are no longer besties.

Everyone knew the brofest between the Richest Man in the World and the Most Powerful Man in the World was never going to end well. And that makes it all the more awe-inspiring when it finally ends—not with a bang, but with a fusillade of nasty shitposts.

So pull up your chair, and enjoy the antics of America's Finest.

Most of us can remember the lovely sendoff President Trump gave the celebrated sperm donor Elon Musk (cue Green Day) on May 30:

But storm clouds had clearly gathered.  Trump's warm hand clasp was probably still a-tingle a few days later on Musk's skin when he typed out his first banger, criticizing his former pal's big beautiful bill as a "disgusting abomination."

Oh, dear. Never one to turn the other cheek, President Trump began Thursday with a few remarks about how disappointed he was in Elon.

Trump even pointed out that he'd have won Pennsylvania in the general election had it not been for Musk, and that "Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore.”

Then the president escalated the Tirade War by issuing a veiled threat...

...and confiding to the world that Elon was giving him the ick:

Oh, yeah? Well Musk isn't going to be fired, he quit!

And then Musk drops the "really big bomb" on Trump:

Wait, what?

Now he's really hitting below the belt.
