US President Donald Trump said he is considering reviewing certain decisions of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is headed by American billionaire Elon Musk. That’s what he’s about reported in an interview with ABC News.
Trump positively assessed DOGE’s activities, stressing that “DOGE saved $150 billion.” At the same time, he admitted that not all decisions of the department may remain valid.
“There were some things that I heard about and I canceled them, as you know. There are things that I’m now considering canceling. But overall, we’ve saved hundreds of billions of dollars.” – he noted.
It will be recalled that on April 4, Trump suggested that Elon Musk would leave the White House “in a few months.” According to the president, he would like Musk, who heads the Department of Government Efficiency, to remain in office “as long as possible.”
At the same time, Trump acknowledged that “there will come a time when he will have to leave,” in part because of the responsibilities associated with running companies owned by Musk.
Asked by reporters how long, in his opinion, Musk will remain in the administration, Trump replied:
“I mean, as much as he wants.”
In the end, the president noted that, in his opinion, Musk will likely leave his post “in a few months.”
