So, President Donald Trump and Elon Musk are supposedly going to have a call today to try to air their grievances in private instead of in front of the whole damn world (which I detailed here yesterday).

You know, like actual adults might do.

Dasha Burns reports at Politico that she had a brief call with the President late Thursday, during which he “projected an air of nonchalance” about his and Musk’s public pissing contest, which climaxed when Musk apparently thought he was breaking news by saying Trump is in the Epstein files.

That was a mistaken assumption on Musk’s part. Trump’s brief relationship with Epstein, and his one flight on Epstein’s jet along with his second wife and one of his daughters long been public record, as has the fact that Trump banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago in the mid-1990s after he caught him hitting on the underage daughter of a guest. This is not news. We have known these things for years.
