Trump says Musk to face ‘very serious consequences’ if he funds Democrats

BEDMINSTER, N.J. (Reuters) -Donald Trump said on Saturday there would be “serious consequences” if Elon Musk funds U.S. Democrats running against Republicans who vote for the president’s sweeping tax-cut and spending bill and said his relationship with his billionaire donor is over. In a telephone interview with NBC News, Trump declined to say what those consequences would be, and went on to add that he had not had discussions about whether to investigate Musk. Asked if he thought his relationship with the Tesla and SpaceX CEO was over, Trump said, “I would assume so, yeah.”
