Musk Slams Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill": $3.8 Trillion Deficit Warning

Elon Musk Criticizes Trump's "Big, Beautiful" Bill, Raising Concerns About Budget Deficit Washington, D.C. – In a recent interview on CBS Sunday Morning, tech mogul Elon Musk voiced his concerns regarding President Donald Trump's newly passed "big, beautiful" bill. Musk expressed apprehension about the bill's potential to significantly increase the national budget deficit, stating, "I was like, disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly." He further warned that the bill could undermine the Department of Government Efficiency's efforts. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office supports Musk's concerns, estimating that the bill could add $3.8 trillion to the national debt. This projection casts a shadow over the administration's fiscal goals and raises questions about the bill's long-term sustainability. The bill's future remains uncertain as it moves to the Senate for review and potential amendments. Musk's comments add weight to the ongoing debate about the bill's financial implications and its impact on government efficiency.
