Jimmy Kimmel was baffled by Elon Musk\u2019s appearance at a White House event on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

The controversial DOGE founder had a major public falling-out with President Donald Trump in June 2025, declaring on X <\/a>that Trump was \u201cin the Epstein files.\u201d Six months later, Musk politely attended Trump\u2019s dinner event with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese guys, I don\u2019t…\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cTheir relationship is like a Cybertruck. It\u2019s cold one minute, on fire<\/a> the next.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI guess they made up,\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cMusk publicly threatened to drop a big Epstein bomb on Trump, but now I guess they\u2019re cool.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kimmel showed a clip of Musk waiting for Trump\u2019s greeting. The president gave him a pat on the stomach before walking past. <\/p>\n

\u201cTrump gave him a little love when he came out,\u201d Kimmel joked. \u201cHe was checking to see if Elon made himself pregnant, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kimmel argued that the entire dinner event, held for a Saudi crown prince whose government murdered<\/a> a Washington Post reporter in 2018, was \u201ca parade of the unpleasant.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe prince got a shout-out<\/a> in that new batch of emails last week,\u201d Kimmel noted. <\/p>\n

He explained, \u201c[Reporter Michael] Wolff says that when Epstein traveled to Saudi Arabia, they would get around the rules that make it difficult for unaccompanied women to enter the country by dressing his lady friends up as flight attendants with a knowing wink from the prince.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo naturally, Trump had a big fancy dinner for him,\u201d Kimmel said. <\/p>\n

Kimmel noted that the dinner was also attended by prominent MAGA figures like Vice President JD Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven Stephen Miller showed up, which is unusual since he rarely feeds outside his terrarium,\u201d said Kimmel. <\/p>\n

He joked further, \u201cIt was like an alumni dinner for the Legion of Doom.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jimmy Kimmel was baffled by Elon Musk\u2019s appearance at a White House event on Tuesday.
