President Donald Trump reacted to meeting with X owner Elon Musk at Charlie Kirk’s memorial in Arizona.
The pair experienced an infamous falling out several months ago, but Sunday’s friendly exchange in Trump’s box at the State Farm Stadium leaves many with the hope of reconciliation.

“Well, Elon came over and said hello. And, no, it’s nothing to do with that. It was — I thought it was nice. And he came over. Had a little conversation. We had a very good relationship. But it was nice that he came,” Trump said before redirecting attention to a UFC fight at the White House.
The pair’s previously strong bond was severed when Musk accused Trump of withholding the Epstein files over the summer, and even threatened to start a third political party in protest. Trump did not fire back with his usual vigor, but did imply that his administration may be interested in taking a look at any government contracts with Musk’s companies.
But now, it would appear that they are at least back on cordial speaking terms, which has X buzzing:
Exciting. I have a feeling the love was never lost.

I loved @realDonaldTrump s honesty during his eulogy during Charlie Kirk’s memorial. He is the best president I have ever seen in my lifetime.

If ever there was a time to put silly insignificant differences aside?
Then this is it.

I love to see this. I wonder if that feud was just a little bit staged to stop all the vicious attacks on Elon’s companies.

I’ll bet you this whole thing is causing Elon to rethink the whole God concept.
