Amid escalating tensions between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, US Vice President JD Vance took to social media to defend the US President and push back against what he described as “lies" spread by the corporate media.

“There are many lies the corporate media tells about President Trump. One of the most glaring is that he’s impulsive or short-tempered," JD Vance wrote on X, asserting, “Anyone who has seen him operate under pressure knows that’s ridiculous. It’s (maybe) the single biggest disconnect between fake media perception and reality."

JD Vance’s comments come as Donald Trump and Elon Musk entered into an increasingly public and hostile feud which deepened this week. The once-warm relationship between the two devolved into an acrimonious public feud as both exchanged barbs on social media and in public remarks.

Donald Trump, in turn, dismissed Elon Musk as a “man who has lost his mind" and suggested he was ungrateful, warning that the billionaire’s companies may lose access to federal contracts and subsidies.

JD Vance reaffirmed his loyalty to the US President as he wrote on X earlier, “President Trump has done more than any person in my lifetime to earn the trust of the movement he leads. I’m proud to stand beside him."
