By now it’s clear they don’t like each other, Elon Musk felt Bill Gates ‘backstabbed’ him when he asked Bill about his $500 million short-position against Tesla stock, to which Gates replied, he hadn’t closed it yet.

Elon Musk takes everything about Tesla personally, he doesn’t have a soft spot in his heart for anyone who’s ‘shorting’ Tesla stock, he views them as the ‘enemy’.

So, it isn’t surprising that after their leaked conversation was ‘shared’ with the public, he went to Twitter to fire the first salvo.

Musk is one of the social media platform's most prolific users. He has a thing for Twitter that he is buying the social media platform for $44 billion or will he?

And with close to 94 million engaged fans when he tweeted a meme of Gates comparing him to the pregnant emoji many of his fans retweeted the meme. It made Bill Gates not only a trending topic but the joke of the day.

I guess it was a good day for Elon Musk.

No lost love between Musk and Gates
