I’d keep him as long as I could keep him,” Trump said during an signing ceremony for a slew of new executive orders. “He wants to. I’d keep him as long as I could keep him,” Trump said.
He emphasized that agency heads who had worked with Musk had gotten a “big education” in how to tackle waste and fraud in government spending before saying that, should Musk leave DC to get back in the saddle at XAi, X, SpaceX, Tesla and Starlink, “there will be a point at which the secretaries will be able to do this work.”
