U.S. president Donald Trump, faced with criticism of his administration by billionaire Elon Musk, said he was disappointed with the entrepreneur, adding that he had done a lot for him.
"I am very disappointed with Elon, I helped him very much," Trump said at a gathering with German Chancellor Friedrich Merzem.
The president besides added that he erstwhile had a good relation with Musk, but he does not know if that is the case now.
On Tuesday, Musk powerfully criticized Trump's bill on spending and taxes "One, Big, Beautiful" – calling it "disgusting".
Musk stepped down from his position as head of the US Government Efficiency Department (DOGE) in Trump administration last week, but stressed that he would proceed to be a friend and advisor to the President.
