Elon Musk and Donald Trump should reconcile their differences Republican lawmakers told the Daily Mail.

The two most powerful men in the world engaged in a historic blowup over differences about Trump’s signature ‘big beautiful bill.’ It quickly turned ugly as Musk hurled insults at the president and Trump fired back on social media. 

Trump said earlier Friday that the two ‘won’t be speaking’ for a while as a result of the back-and-forth falling out.

‘I’m not even thinking about Elon,’ Trump told CNN. ‘He’s got a problem. The poor guy’s got a problem.’

But GOP lawmakers are hopeful that the pair can patch up their differences in the coming days. 

Speaker Mike Johnson, who has been in the middle of the spat over the Big Beautiful Bill Act, said Friday he hopes Trump and Musk ‘reconcile.’

‘I believe in redemption,’ Johnson said. ‘That’s part of my worldview, and I think it’s good for the party and the country if all that’s worked out.’ 

The speaker appeared to downplay the spat on Thursday, saying that differences over policy are never personal despite Musk’s below-the-belt claim that Trump has ties to pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Musk even went so far as to suggest the president should be impeached and replaced with JD Vance for wanting to sending the U.S. into ‘debt slavery.’

As tensions flared between the two leaders, Republicans in Congress appeared like children caught in a fight between their parents. 

Amid Musk and Trump’s public feud, Republican lawmakers are urging the powerful pair to make amends and reconcile their differences

The blow up was a shock for many lawmakers who told the Daily Mail they hope the fighting stops soon

‘I think they should reconcile,’ Rep. Mike McCaul, R-Texas, told the Daily Mail. ‘After all, they said they loved each other, so I think it’s time for reconciliation for them.’ 

‘My intel that I have is that they are going to reconcile today,’ he disclosed. 

Many GOP lawmakers said the same, hoping for the two to iron out their differences.

‘I hope they make up,’ Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., told the Daily Mail of the Musk-Trump divide.

Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., who sits on House GOP leadership, told the Daily Mail the attacks aren’t new. 

‘It’s not something that, you know, we haven’t seen before,’ he said of the feud, adding Musk’s attacks ‘are all falsehoods and for political show.’ 

Firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., told the Daily Mail that it’s up to Trump to decide whether he wants to make amends with the businessman.

‘I don’t get involved with things that involve him,’ she said not wanting to instruct the president on how to react. 

‘They should reconcile,’ Rep. Tom Tiffany, R-Wis., shared. ‘I think its a great idea.’ 

A member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus that often acts as a thorn in the side of GOP leadership, Tiffany bragged that the saga is evidence of a normal policy debate. 

‘I think the good robust debate is a good thing,’ he added, noting that with the pace of the tweets sent out by Musk the pair could make up at any moment. 

Texas Republican Mike McCaul told the Daily Mail he expects the public spat to be over soon

Trump told ABC News on Friday that Musk ‘hast lost his mind’ 

Musk and Trump grew closer last year as the billionaire poured hundreds of millions of dollars into the Republican’s campaign

Mark Bednar, a former senior staffer for Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Principal at Monument Advocacy, told the Daily Mail that the turbulence between Musk and the president amounts to ‘just another week’ of being a Republican in Washington.   

‘It also remains true that if and when Republicans are together, they can rack up massive legislative wins for the American people, and when they are apart it’s the Democrats who benefit.’ 

Trump, for his part, is not eager to talk to his former DOGE lieutenant. 

Speaking with ABC News on Friday morning, the president admitted he was ‘not particularly’ interested in speaking with the billionaire. 

The president referred to Musk as ‘the man who has lost his mind,’ saying that the Tesla owner wants to speak with him but he does not have interest in speaking.
