Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s relationship has imploded, and it’s not taken long for TV executives to make their pitches.

The pair have become embroiled in a very public feud over the president’s former advisor calling his Big Beautiful Bill an ‘abomination’.

Trump called Musk ‘crazy’ and threatened to cut SpaceX funding, leading to the businessman unleashing on the politician in an extraordinary series of posts on X.

Their ‘great relationship’, as Trump put it, has ended in a shocking turn of events, and now Andy Cohen has pitched a way to get them in the same room.

The host and executive producer of the Real Housewives franchise suggested the pair could come together for a ‘reunion’ style show.

Alongside a US flag emoji, he joked on X: ‘LET ME HOST THE REUNION!’

Hours earlier, Pennsylvania U.S. Representative Malcolm Kenyatta brought up the tongue in cheek idea, insisting the country ‘deserves all the tea’.

He quipped: ‘Petition to have @Andy host the Trump-Musk White House Housewives Reunion. America deserves all the tea. Also kill the bill.’

No, it’s almost definitely not going to happen – but with Trump and his past in reality television, anything is possible.

It all kicked off after Trump admitted to reporters at the White House that he was ‘very disappointed in Musk’ for criticising his spending bill.

"As my scheduled time as a Special Government Employee comes to an end, I would like to thank President Donald Trump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending," he wrote on his social media platform X.

He later said on Truth Social that the billionaire businessman was ‘wearing thin’.

He added: ‘I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy electric cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!) and he just went CRAZY!’

Trump insisted the ‘easiest way’ for the US to save ‘billions and billions’ in the budget is to ‘terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts’.

It didn’t take Musk long to respond after Tesla shares plummeted more than 14%, and he soon said his former boss is named in the unreleased Epstein files.

‘Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files,’ he wrote. ‘That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!’

He also agreed with a right-wing X personality Ian Miles Cheong who called for Trump should be impeached.

In another post Musk, who gave $250million to Trump’s 2024 campaign, insisted he helped him get into the White House.

‘Without me, Trump would have lost the election,’ he wrote. ‘Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate. Such ingratitude.’
