#Trump vs Musk: The electric car fight goes public — will crypto get involved?
It’s getting serious.
Donald Trump has once again picked a fight with Elon Musk, accusing him of reaping the benefits of government subsidies for his prosperity and slamming electric car mandates as “ridiculous.”
“Without the subsidies, Elon Musk would probably have to close his shop and go back to South Africa.” — Donald Trump
“Maybe we should let DOGE think about this?” — Trump again
What happened?
Trump opposes mandatory electric car promotion, a key part of Biden-era environmental policy.
Despite Musk’s recent support for Trump, he is a true electric car entrepreneur — and a huge beneficiary of US government contracts and incentives.
Now Trump is criticizing SpaceX and Tesla again, even dragging #DOGE into the mix, whether he’s being sarcastic or not.
Why does this matter for crypto?
Elon Musk: Dogecoin (DOGE)’s main influencer. Trump’s swipe could be a signal for memecoin enthusiasts… or a warning.
The EV and clean energy sectors are tied to large amounts of public money that is intertwined with blockchain innovations (e.g. carbon credits, supply chain tokens).
Subsidy-driven markets (EVs, AI, cleantech) create bubbles. And when bubbles burst, capital tends to flow to alternative assets, including cryptocurrencies.
Questions to ponder
Is Trump really attacking subsidies, or is he trying to distance himself from the now-controversial tech billionaire?
Will this set off a Dogecoin vs. #Trumpcoin showdown in the 2025 meme wars?
Or is this all just a high-level marketing stunt between two masters of the attention economy?
What do you think?
Will this fight affect the market? Or is it just another pre-election farce?
