Betting on Trump's defeat to call for the sale of Tesla? Bezos denies Musk's revelation: 100% false

The two billionaires Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have "clashed" on social media, this time concerning Trump.

First, Musk posted on his social media platform X, revealing: at Mar-a-Lago, Jeff Bezos told everyone that Trump would definitely lose (the election), so they should sell all their shares in Tesla and SpaceX. He ended the post with a smirking emoji.

Then, Bezos directly responded to Musk's post, bluntly denying it: "This is not true, 100% false."

Musk then replied to Bezos's denial: "Well, I admit my mistake."

It seems that the latest round of public confrontation between Musk and Bezos ended with the former quickly "admitting his mistake." However, recently Bezos has not taken a gamble on Trump winning big while Musk is riding high.

Last week, Trump fulfilled his campaign promise, announcing that after he was elected president, Musk would lead a newly established department called the "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE), specifically aimed at reducing bureaucracy in the U.S. federal government, cutting unnecessary regulations, reducing wasteful spending, and restructuring an efficient federal agency. He requested that these tasks be completed by July 4, 2026, as a tribute to the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence.

This week, Wallstreetcn mentioned that media reports indicated Google CEO Sundar Pichai unexpectedly found Musk on the line when he called Trump to congratulate him on his election. Over the past two weeks, Trump and Musk have seemingly been inseparable: from Musk's "unexpected appearance" during Trump's call with Zelensky, to dining with Trump and his family, to providing substantial financial support for Trump's campaign and becoming an important advisor for Trump's second presidential term planning, their "friendship" continues.

At the end of last month, Bezos announced that his Washington Post would not support any presidential candidates, leading to a wave of subscription cancellations. Recent reports have revealed further troubles he is facing.

This Wednesday, Fox News mentioned that a report from New York Magazine indicated that prior to Bezos's decision triggering a boycott of the Washington Post, the newspaper was already in financial trouble. Senior executives revealed in a recent newsroom meeting that this year's losses are expected to reach $77 million, not including the 250,000 subscriptions canceled due to Bezos's decision not to support Vice President Harris
