00:00What's your view on Elon Musk's team?
00:02Honestly, I've been so busy working on China, working on Russia, working on Iran, I just wish him well.
00:07What's your view on Elon Musk as of today? Have you heard from him at all as your team?
00:12Honestly, I've been so busy working on China, working on Russia, working on Iran, working on so many...
00:17I'm not thinking about Elon. I just wish him well.
00:30See you later.
00:47And this has a good time .
01:53It would save a lot of time if that happened.
01:55So I'm okay with it.
01:56I haven't decided to use it.
01:58It's a very strong bill.
02:00Mr. President, you gave Elon Musk when he left the White House a key symbolically to the White House, to the administration at large.
02:07I think that's what...
02:08Would you like him to give that back?
02:10No, I don't take things back.
02:11What about the Tesla?
02:12I gave him a key.
02:13He tried very hard.
02:14The Tesla, I haven't thought.
02:15What's your motivation on his work, then, as of this point, for the administration?
02:19How do you think his doge did at the end of the day with the savings that...
02:22Oh, I think it helped us a lot.
02:23I think it helped our thinking.
02:25And it's not finished at all.
02:27We are basically taking it over.
02:29We're doing a job.
02:30Many of those people remain with us, and they're going to remain with us.
02:34They're very good.
02:35It's terrific.
02:36We saved, you know, hundreds of billions of dollars.
02:40It's terrific.
02:41And it's going further.
02:42I'd give you the answer, actually, at the end of two years, because a lot of it is
02:45out into the future.
02:47But it was a big saving and a good mindset.
02:49What do you do about the Tesla?
02:50Are you going to keep it, or are you going to...?
02:52I haven't thought about it.
02:53Do you have any plans to contact...
02:54I mean, I hope he does well with Tesla.
02:55Do you have any plans to speak with Mr. Musk?
02:58This was one of your closest advisors for us.
03:00I don't have any plans.
03:02Somebody made a mistake.
03:04A lot of reporters have been calling me.
03:05I didn't call any reporter.
03:07A lot of reporters, they ask me the same question.
03:09They're apparently...
03:10No, I'm not even thinking about that.
03:11There apparently were these efforts, and this is what I read, to bring you guys, you and
03:14Elon back together.
03:15So those efforts are, where are they?
03:16No, no, there are efforts.
03:17I mean, I've been asked about it, but I'm not really interested in that.
03:22I'm really interested in the country and solving problems, including war problems in very far
03:29away lands.
03:29A lot of people being killed.
