Musk and Trump had previously clashed over a major legislative disagreement. Musk resigned from his role in the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) after opposing the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” a comprehensive spending package he claimed undercut limited government reforms.
Despite tensions, both men attended the Sept. 21 memorial service and appeared to set their differences aside in a highly visible show of respect and unity.
The reunion drew significant attention from political observers, given both men’s influence on the future of conservative politics. Trump remains the undisputed leader of the Republican base, while Musk has become a prominent voice on free speech, anti-censorship, and pushing back against progressive overreach in the tech world. Their handshake was seen by many as more than cordial—it was a message of solidarity during a time of national mourning.
