Trump said that many Doge employees, i.e. the government efficiency department, headed by Musk, will continue to work for his administration. The US President emphasized that the boss of Tesla and Spacex “did a fantastic job” and will continue to “fall into Washington”.
Musk assured that he would still be a “adviser and friend” by Trump. As the New York Times comments, both the American president and the current head of Doge are trying to blur the impression that there were misunderstandings between them.
Donald Trump talks about migrants again and criticizes the West
“NYT” emphasizes that although officially a press conference in the oval office was to be devoted to farewell to Musk, it quickly turned into a session of the questions of journalists and the president's declaration on other topics, from wars in Ukraine and the Gaza Street, to the draft budget act, the conflict of the White House with Harvard and commercial voltages in relations with China.
Trump has returned several times to the topic of fighting immigration and said that countries around the world empty psychiatric hospitals, wanting to send their patients to the USA, and most immigrants – are “cold, hardened criminals” who want to get rid of the rule of their countries to save money.
This was commented by Musk, who assessed that “the fundamental disadvantage of the West is empathy for criminals.” He also said that the courts who are trying to stop the president are acting “unconstitutional”.
