Summary
Elon Musk, co-head of the Department of Government Efficiency under Donald Trump’s advisory team, revised his claim of finding $2 trillion in federal budget cuts to a “best-case outcome” of $1 trillion.
Musk’s earlier target, dismissed as unrealistic by experts, had included the entire discretionary budget of $1.7 trillion.
While Musk and co-lead Vivek Ramaswamy plan to recommend cuts, specifics remain unclear.
Experts warn savings may require targeting mandatory programs like Medicaid, potentially causing hardships.
No, this is bit Elon Musk being unserious, this is musk just lying his ass off as he does all day, every day, since forever.
When you start looking into his history you’ll find a pattern of continuous lies and deceits. Everything great he is known for either actually never happened (self driving cars, anyone? Any day now he’ll have them, forover a decade already) or is something that someone else did and he just took the credit.
He won’t “find” 2 trillion dollars. He won’t find a single trillion dollar either, he won’t find much, in the end.
This is just typical Elon Musk behavior as he knows that the musk fans will remember those 2 trillion dollars, they’ll forgetbot completely ignore reality
