Trump to keep Starlink at White House despite break with Elon Musk
Jun 9, 2025 3:33 PM

WASHINGTON, June 9 (Reuters) -

President Donald Trump said on Monday he has no plans to

discontinue Starlink at the White House but might move his Tesla

off-site, following his announcement over the weekend that his

relationship with Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of both

companies, was over.

"I may move the Tesla around a little bit, but I don't

think we'll be doing that with Starlink. It's a good service,"

Trump told reporters, referring to the satellite internet

company that provides high-speed broadband access. It is a unit

of Musk's SpaceX.

In March, Trump said he had purchased a red Tesla

Model S from Musk, Trump's then-close ally.

Last week, a White House official said Trump might get

rid of it after a public feud erupted between the two men. The

Tesla was seen parked at the White House over the weekend.

On Saturday, Trump said he had

no intention

of repairing ties with Musk. On Monday, the president said

he would not have a problem if Musk called.

"We had a good relationship, and I just wish him well,"

Trump said. Musk responded with a heart emoji to a video on X

showing Trump's remarks.

Last week, Trump and Musk

exchanged a flurry of insults

after the world's richest man denounced Trump's tax and

spending bill as a "disgusting abomination."

Musk's opposition has complicated Republican efforts to

pass Trump's "big, beautiful bill" in Congress, where the party

holds slim majorities in the House of Representatives and

Senate.

Since the dispute

began last Thursday

, Musk has deleted some social media posts critical of

Trump, including one signaling support for impeaching the

president.

Sources close to Musk said his

anger has started to subside

, and they believe he may want to repair his relationship

with Trump.
