    Earlier, he had shared his own opinion saying, “A new spending bill should be drafted that doesn’t massively grow the deficit and increase the debt ceiling by 5 TRILLION DOLLARS.”This vocal protest marks Musk’s first public disagreement with Trump after his recent exit from the administration last week.He had condemned Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ declaring, “This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong.”Also read: Elon Musk calls Donald Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ a ‘disgusting abomination’; how White House reactedFollowing this, Musk indicated that the bill would “massively increase the already gigantic budget deficit to $2.5 trillion” whilst stating that “Congress is making America bankrupt.”Musk has earlier expressed his disapproval of the bill. In his role as the former chief of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Musk commented, “I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not just decreases it, and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing.” He added, “I think a bill can be big or it can be beautiful but I don’t know if it can be both. My personal opinion.”During an interview with CBS News, Musk had maintained his opposition to the matter despite his close and public association with the US President. The legislation faces broad opposition, with Republican fiscal conservatives raising concerns about national insolvency, while independent analysts project the deficit could rise by up to $4 trillion over a decade.Additionally, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) also released its assessment on Wednesday, indicating that the Republican-proposed tax cuts and reductions in federal programmes would likely add $2.4 trillion to America’s national debt over the coming decade.Read more: Trump’s big bill could raise national debt by $2.4 trillion; 10.9 million to lose health insurance
