Some Republicans still hope for a detente between the two men, although that seemed unlikely on Friday .

The messy breakup between Trump and Musk could distance Republicans from a polarizing figure whose favorability rating was starting to become a drag on the Trump administration.

With a clean break, Democrats will have a harder time pairing Musk with Trump after months of calling Musk his “co-president”.

White House aides were scheduled to speak with Musk on the phone on Friday .

Trump told reporters that “we’ll take a look at everything” when asked about cutting Musk’s contracts.

Some Trump allies are calling for retribution, including Steve Bannon , a former White House chief political strategist.
