ELON Musk has “White House PTSD” and thinks he made a mistake by helping Trump get reelected, his dad has claimed.

Errol Musk, 79, made the explosive remarks in Moscow, where he’s set to appear at a Kremlin-backed forum organised by Putin’s inner circle.

It comes just days after his billionaire son’s high-profile alliance with the US President imploded in a fierce online feud.

The world’s wealthiest man — who is said to have contributed $288 million to Trump’s 2024 campaign and briefly worked as a White House adviser — has now criticized the president over his broad tax and spending legislation.

Elon even suggested on X that Trump had links to disgraced paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, although the post was later removed and the White House outright rejected the accusation.

Their bromance is now beyond repair.

On Sunday, Trump told NBC that he is not interested in reconciliation: “I would assume so, yeah,” he responded when questioned if their relationship is over. “I have no intention of speaking to him.”

Now, the Tesla and SpaceX boss is said to be grappling with regret and fatigue from his turbulent stint in Washington.

Musk Snr told Putin-controlled media: “So at the moment, Elon is inclined to say that he’s made a mistake.”

“Trump will prevail. He’s the president, he was elected as the president.

“Elon made a mistake, I think, but he’s tired, he’s stressed.

He added: “Five months of continuous stress, continuous, continuous stress, stress, stress.

“And then in the end, it’s just him and Trump left… They still don’t know what to do, so they fight with each other until they can come to normal conditions.”

The South African businessman likened the split to a “marriage going wrong” and suggested his son was out of depth in the brutal political arena.

He told Russian outlet Izvestia: “It happens in marriages, it happens in partnerships, it happens a lot .

“And people have to understand that at the moment, Elon is having second thoughts…

“He’s not a great politician, he is still learning, he’s a great tech innovator and so forth.

“But his politics is, as I’ve said before, is a swimming pool with no bottom, it’s a swimming pool with no sides.

“When you’re in a swimming pool of politics, you’ve got to really know where to go.

“And he [Elon] doesn’t realise that.”

Errol added that Elon had been trying to “get everything right” with a recent bill, but clashed with Trump over what he saw as excessive Democratic spending concessions.

“But unfortunately, he doesn’t realise that in order to get their votes in the Senate and the Congress, Trump has to do that,” he said.

“They are the only two people left in the arena… and they took to each other, which is understandable.”

Errol’s comments were made to Tsargrad TV — owned by Konstantin Malofeev, a businessman with alleged links to Russian military intelligence.

He praised Moscow, saying: “Whoever designed this city is a true genius. These majestic buildings remind me of Ancient Rome.”

He also dismissed Western portrayals of the Russian capital as “nonsense.”

Errol will speak at the Future Forum 2050, organised by Malofeev and Putin ideologist and “philosopher” Alexander Dugin. 

Meanwhile, Russia appears eager to capitalize on Musk’s estrangement from the US political elite.

Putin crony Dmitry Medvedev cheekily offered to mediate peace talks between “D and E” — Trump and Elon— “for a reasonable fee and to accept Starlink shares as payment.”

Another Kremlin loyalist, ex-space chief Dmitry Rogozin, publicly offered Musk asylum.

“You are respected in Russia. If you encounter insurmountable problems in the US, come to us and become one of us,” Rogozin wrote.

Russia would offer him “reliable comrades and complete freedom of technical creativity”.
