Despite their public spat, the stalemate between former President Donald Trump and Elon Musk shows no signs of breaking. Trump appears unwilling to reconcile, stating he has "not much" interest in speaking with Musk and even considering selling his red Tesla. Meanwhile, Musk seems open to thawing relations.

According to reports, in a phone interview Friday morning - just hours after their heated exchange - Trump sounded indifferent about their feud as if it wasn't even the most interesting thing that happened Thursday.

When asked by a reporter around 7 a.m. Friday about reports of a planned call between him and Musk later that day, Trump responded: "You mean the man who has lost his mind? I'm 'not particularly interested in talking to him right now."

"I'm not even thinking about Elon. He's got a problem. The poor guy's got a problem," the president said.

Trump said Musk wants to talk, but he isn't ready for a conversation. Following these remarks, Tesla's pre-market gains narrowed.

A senior White House official revealed that Trump is considering selling or giving away the red Tesla he purchased earlier this year. The vehicle was originally bought for a photo op at the White House to promote Musk's business. As of Thursday night, the car was still parked outside the West Wing.

However, reports suggest that while no direct talks are planned between the two, Musk may engage in discussions with White House aides on Friday in an effort to defuse tensions.

Earlier, as reported by media, on June 5, after Trump and Musk began publicly trading barbs, Musk took to social media to declare that the former president "should be impeached."

Sources close to Trump say his feelings toward Musk lean more toward disappointment than anger. An advisor who was with Trump Thursday night described him as "frustrated" over the fallout. By Friday morning, his stance remained unchanged.

Musk, on the other hand, appears more willing to mend fences. Earlier, hedge fund manager Bill Ackman led calls for a truce on X, posting:

"I support both Trump and Musk. They should make peace for the benefit of our great country."

Musk's response was cryptic but telling: "You're not wrong."
