‘They will lash out big time’: Musk reveals the brutal price he paid for trying to clean up Washington

Elon Musk recently admitted he’s not sure if his work with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was worth all the trouble it caused. During an interview on The Katie Miller Podcast, the tech billionaire said he wouldn’t take the job again if given the chance. When Miller asked if he would accept the role a second time, Musk answered, “I mean, no, I don’t think so.”

According to the NY Post, Musk said he should have just focused on running his own companies instead of trying to cut government waste. “I think instead of doing DOGE, I would have basically worked on my companies, essentially,” he explained. This is a big confession, especially since he was excited about the project when it started under Trump’s second administration.
