Rand Paul and Elon Musk Slam Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ as Republican Discontent Intensifies

Emerging dissent among Republicans and MAGA supporters is evident regarding President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill," as discontent over its details intensifies. Several Republican legislators are starting to distance themselves from Trump's substantial spending initiative, which saw the House vote in favor just before Memorial Day. Elon Musk, the Tesla and SpaceX tycoon, voiced his disdain on social media, asserting that the bill contradicts his initiatives at the Department of Government Efficiency. He labeled it a "disgusting abomination," expressing outrage over its content. Similarly, Senator Rand Paul criticized the movement, emphasizing that the GOP would be held accountable for the impending debt. Even Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene admitted to backing it without fully reading, revealing her surprise at provisions restricting state AI regulations. With the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office anticipating extensive costs, this contentious package proceeds to the Senate for further deliberation.
