Trump-Musk ties thawing? Tesla CEO invited to White House dinner for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman

US President Donald Trump and Elon Musk attend a press conference in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, May 30, 2025.

Tesla CEO and billionaire Elon Musk is expected to attend the dinner US President Donald Trump is hosting for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Washington DC on Tuesday. The visit is MBS’ first to the US in seven years.

Musk, along with golfer tiger Tiger Woods, was invited to the event by Trump as per Punch News.

It is, however, unclear whether Musk has accepted the invite.

Earlier in September, the Tesla CEO had declined an invitation by Trump to attend a dinner for top tech and business leaders at the White House, following a dramatic fallout with the US President in June.

While there were conflicting reports at the time on whether Musk had been snubbed, the Tesla CEO took to X to dispel the rumours, saying that he was, in fact, invited to the event but had other obligations.

“A representative of mine will be there,” Musk had said at the time in his response to an X user, who questioned in disbelief: “Bill Gates but not Elon Musk….wtf?”

Trump and Musk, however, were seen in public for the first time after their fallout in September as well at a memorial service for slain activist Charlie Kirk, who was shot dead.
