President Donald Trump threatened to cut Elon Musk’s government contracts as their fractured alliance escalated into a public feud Thursday. The world’s richest man responded in kind, saying he’d decommission a space capsule used to take astronauts and supplies to the International Space Station.

Shares of Musk’s electric vehicle maker Tesla fell 14%, knocking about $150 billion off the company’s market valuation.

      Like kids on a playground.

      “I’m not going to help you with your electric cars.”

      “Fine, I’ll take my spaceship away then.”

    Trump is weaker than his fingers are short. He’s always throwing tantrums of threats that everyone just laughs at.

    Does Musk not understand that the US government can say fuck you give us the Dragon tech and give it to NASA. No questions asked, what are you going to do?
