Donald Trump is\u00a0thinking about selling his Tesla<\/a>\u00a0car amid his public row with the company’s chief Elon Musk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The White House\u00a0says Trump does not intend to talk to the tech billionaire today, despite earlier reports they might have a phone call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump has spoken to several US media outlets, calling\u00a0Musk “the man who has lost his mind”<\/a>.Musk has only\u00a0commented briefly<\/a>, replying “exactly” to a post that says he has only criticised Congress, while Trump has attacked him personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rift between the president and his former adviser erupted into the open on Thursday, with Trump saying he was “disappointed” by Musk’s criticisms of his\u00a0spending bill<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Musk then accused Trump of “ingratitude”, saying: “Without me, Trump would have lost the election” –\u00a0here’s how the spat unfolded<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Musk’s companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, have contracts with the US government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
