Scott Jennings needs Pepto Bismol to break down Trump-Musk feud

CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings filled his news mug with Pepto Bismol Thursday night before facing his liberal colleagues to break down the feud between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

“Pepto Bismol is what we all need here in the Republican Party,” he said to the panel on CNN’s NewsNight With Abby Phillip.

“I thought it was some Jack Daniels,” one panel member said.

“We’re beyond that,” Jennings replied.

The feud between the president and Musk over the ‘big, beautiful bill’ and EV mandates reached new levels Thursday as the pair attacked each other on their respective social media platforms, and Jennings said both men have a point.

“Trump’s agenda is in the bill, and he wants to pass it. That’s his point,” he said. “Musk is not wrong about the national debt, and he deeply cares about this, and that’s his point.”

“Their goals are not mutually exclusive, which is, I think, the rub.”

Jennings said that the alliance Trump and Musk formed to take the White House in 2024 saved the country and set the course to save Western civilization, and this feud puts that in jeopardy.

“It’s not just about the daily policy quibbles,” he continued, raising his mug of Pepto Bismol. “It’s about the larger cultural things here at play.”

“So, I’m gonna have some of this tonight and hope for better days and better skies tomorrow because I still love them both, and I hate it when mom and dad are fighting.”

Jennings was not the only media personality attempting ot break down the battle of the billionaires.

“This is asymmetric,” ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl said on Good Morning America Friday. “I mean, Donald Trump, to use his phrase, really holds the cards here.”

“Donald Trump could do severe damage to Elon Musk if he were to go vindictive, and he’s been remarkably restrained.”

Karl added that if Trump chose to go “nuclear” like Musk did, he could go after Musk’s government contracts and announce criminal investigations.

CNN host and contributor Van Jones suggested that Trump target Musk’s employees within the Department of Government Efficiency.

“If Donald Trump is smart, the first thing he’s gonna do is fire, investigate, and prosecute all of Elon’s people who are all throughout government with their laptops downloading data right now,” Jones said.

Washington Examiner senior writer Joe Concha said Musk has been acting like a “petulant teenager.”

“Elon Musk, let’s be blunt, has acted like a petulant teenager with an itchy Twitter finger over the past couple of days,” Concha said during an appearance on Fox Business’s Varney & Co. “Musk does not live in the real world, Concha added. “The real world is where Donald Trump lives.”
