The president of the United States, Donald Trump, said he will consider deporting billionaire Elon Musk in the middle of his ongoing dispute on Trump's tax and expenses legislation.
Trump attributed Musk's opposition to the bill to the elimination of subsidies for electric vehicles, which benefits the Musk company, Tesla.

Trump told White House journalists: “I don't know. We'll have to take a look.”
He also warned that Musk “could lose much more” than the mandate of electric vehicles and suggested that the Government Efficiency Department (Doge) could investigate federal subsidies of Musk companies.
Musk responded on social networks, saying: “So tempting to intensify this. Then, so tempting. But I will refrain for now.”
The dispute between Trump and Musk has intensified about the Republican Tax Law, and Musk calls him a “crazy expense bill” and Trump accusing Musk of prioritizing government subsidies.
