Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s dispute following the DOGE exit has intensified to the point where “Epstein files” have been referenced in an X post, prompting Stephen Colbert to present an outstanding monologue on late-night television.

“Is this Twitter conflict a Cheesy Gordita Crunchwrap Supreme? Because it’s oozing with steamy messy nonsense and I’m savoring every messy bite,” Colbert quipped on Thursday night.

The dynamic between the wealthiest individual globally and the U.S. president has swiftly and visibly unraveled over the last week. What seemed to be a close friendship just days prior has devolved into a social media war of serious insults.

Colbert walked The Late Show audience through each tweet and step in the Musk and Trump “flame war” on Thursday, from Trump’s harsh remarks about Musk during a critical press conference and writing contract-threatening “Elon was wearing thin” posts on Truth Social, to Musk threatening to deactivate SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft and retweeting a post implying “Trump should be impeached.”

If there’s any aspect of this trivial feud you’ve overlooked, Colbert will jog your memory, culminating in Musk’s public assertion, “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files,” along with Kanye West inexplicably entering the conversation.

“You know things are dire when the logical voice mediating your disagreement is Kanye West,” Colbert remarked. “That’s akin to stepping into an intervention hosted by Captain Morgan.”
