Trump says Musk has 'a little problem' at Arizona rally as report backs Musk's finger-pointing at president

President Trump took a jab at Elon Musk during a rally in Arizona, calling him "80 percent super genius" but adding he has "a little problem" — while still praising him as "a great guy." The comments come as a new report is said to back up Musk's own accusations against Trump from their bitter public feud last year.

The two clashed explosively in June 2025, with Musk claiming Trump was blocking the release of documents connected to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Musk had signalled he was stepping back from politics but has since re-emerged as the single largest campaign donor in this year's midterms, backing Republican candidates.

Trump drew a sharp contrast between Musk and Arizona's Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs, whom he called "horrible" and "a dumb person" at the same rally.
