Kanye West jumped into the middle of the escalating war of words between Donald Trump and Elon Musk on Thursday (June 6) with a dramatic plea for peace.
The controversial rapper added his voice to the online chatter, pleading with Trump and Musk to settle their differences.
“Broooos please noooooo,” he tweeted, followed by a hugging emoji. “We love you both so much.”
West’s emotional appeal came as Trump and Musk’s once-friendly relationship unraveled into a full-blown public feud, with both men lobbing personal attacks and political threats over social media.
The spat has already rattled markets, with Tesla stock plunging more than 14% in a single day, wiping out roughly $150 billion in value.
West, who has long aligned himself with Trump—famously donning a red “Make America Great Again” hat and visiting the White House in 2018—tried to play peacemaker as the two billionaires clashed over federal contracts, spending bills and past associations.
Trump kicked off the latest round of jabs by threatening to pull government subsidies from Musk’s companies, saying, “The simplest method to conserve funds in our budget, saving billions, is to eliminate Elon’s governmental subsidies and contracts.”
He added, “Look, Elon and I had a wonderful relationship. I’m not sure if that will remain.”
Musk fired back on X, accusing Trump of being named in the Epstein files calling Trump.
He called Trump “ungrateful” and claimed, “Without me, Trump would have lost the election.”
Elon Musk Believes Donald Trump Should be Impeached
Musk also backed a post calling for Trump’s impeachment, replying simply, “Yes.”
The tech mogul didn’t stop there. He blasted Trump’s latest spending bill as a “repugnant monstrosity” and added, “Shame on those who supported it: you know you were wrong.”
Trump responded by accusing Musk of losing it after being shown the door at the White House. “I rescinded his EV mandate that compelled everyone to purchase electric vehicles that nobody else wanted…and he simply went CRAZY,” Trump posted.
Musk briefly threatened to shut down SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft in retaliation but later walked it back.
The feud has spilled across their respective platforms—Trump’s Truth Social and Musk’s X—turning into a digital slugfest that’s drawn widespread attention and memes, including jokes about who gets “custody of Kanye” in the breakup.
Kanye West, who once referred to himself, Trump and Musk as “immortals” in a since-deleted April 2025 post, has now found himself awkwardly in the middle of their political divorce.
