🔍 What happened

1. an official meeting
   According to recent reports, President Trump and Musk were seen publicly meeting and holding hands at conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s memorial service (September 21, 2025).
   It’s a “sitting together” or a “short handshake,” which is interpreted as a sign of a relationship recovery rather than a complete reconciliation.
2. a change in one’s attitudes

Trump has expressed disappointment at Musk’s in the past for slamming the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (Trump’s big spending bill), but he has not shut down the possibility of restoring the relationship, saying, “No hard feelings.”

Musk also regrets some articles or remarks, apologizes to Trump for the wrong part, or shows a cautious attitude.

3. a media/politician response
   There is an atmosphere inside and outside the Republican Party that expects reconciliation between the two, and there are opinions that restoring relations is favorable to the party.

⚠️ Not sure yet

It’s not like they’ve officially completely restored their relationship, or a specific joint move has begun. It was just a simple meeting and gesture.

Disagreements and conflicts still remain (bill content, fiscal spending policy, etc.)

There is not yet enough information about which of the two has publicly proposed reconciliation first or whether the mutual conversation has continued.

✅ Conclusion

At this point, “Yes, we’re making some peace” or “we can see signs of recovery.” However, more proof/movement (co-speech, cooperation, etc.) is needed to see that we’re “fully reconciled.”
