Donald Trump reunited with Elon Musk at Charlie Kirk’s memorial and it was the very opposite of heartwarming – 13 of the funniest and most brutal responses
There were lots of notable and frankly extraordinary moments at the Charlie Kirk memorial, which at various points came across less as a tribute to the murdered conservative activist as a full-on Maga election rally complete with flags, fireworks and next-level nonsense from Donald Trump.
And one of the most eye-opening moments was the heartwarming reunion of Trump with his former best friend Elon Musk with whom he had a spectacular falling out over taxes, leading Musk to memorably tweet that the president was ‘in the Epstein files’.
That all appears to be behind them now because … look.

And the tit a tit (surely tête-à-tête?) prompted no end of straight talking and totally on-point reactions. These people surely said it best.
