Donald Trump had an emotional three words for none other than his former nemesis, Elon Musk, during Charlie Kirk's funeral yesterday (Sunday 21 September).
That's right - the United States president, 79, and Tesla CEO, 54, appeared to have finally put their differences aside after months of brutal feuding online.
In the drawn-out saga, which was referred to by the internet as their 'break-up,' the former pals fired a slew of insults at each other social media, with neither one backing down.
Musk made some serious bombshell claims, including that the Republican leader was on the so-called 'Jeffrey Epstein list,' while Trump fired back by calling Musk a 'train-wreck' who'd gone 'completely off the rails'.

Like any messy 'break-up' the world watched on with popcorn at the ready, and now to everyone's utter shock, the pair have seemingly buried the hatchet.
They were spotted chatting and shaking hands as they sat together in a box at Kirk's memorial service, held at State Farm Stadium, in Glendale, Arizona.
And lip reader Nicola Hickling claims to have revealed to MailOnline exactly how the interaction went.
Trump allegedly kicked things by asking Musk: "How are you doing?," to which he shrugged his shoulders.
The US president then apparently said: "So Elon, I've heard you wanted to chat. Let’s try and work out how to get back on track."
Musk responded by nodding his head, and the president then hugged his hand and is said to have whispered: "I've missed you."
The tech boss later took to Twitter to share a picture of the two talking, alongside the caption: "For Charlie."
And according to Sky News, Trump also commented on their exchange, as he recalled: "Well, Elon came over and said hello.
"I thought it was nice that he came over. Had a little conversation. We had a good relationship, but it was nice that he came over."
Things all kicked off when Musk left his role in the Trump administration at the end of May, after leading the newly-formed Department Of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
After the 130-day limit for his job came to an end, things quickly turned sour between the duo.
Musk didn't mince his words when he branded Trump's beloved 'Big Beautiful Bill' a 'massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill' and 'a disgusting abomination'.
And things took an even worse turn in July, when on his way to visit a migrant detention facility in Florida, a reporter asked Trump: "Are you going to deport Elon Musk?"
"We'll have to take a look," he replied.
However, it really does seem like the pair have put the past behind them after reuniting at the funeral and subsequently sharing snaps of the moment online.
The White House shared a black and white photo taken from behind of the pair talking and wrote: "POTUS x @ElonMusk. For Charlie."
