During an impromptu question and answer with reporters on the White House lawn, Donald Trump made more ominous rumblings about what could await Elon Musk if he persists in trying to derail the megabill currently being debated in the Senate.
Asked about Musk's attacks on X, Trump reiterated a threat from an early morning Truth Social post where he suggested the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) should take a gander at the billionaire's millions of dollars in government contracts.
"We might have to put DOGE on Elon," he stated. "You know what DOGE is? DOGE is the monster that might have to go back and eat Elon, wouldn't that be terrible?"
"He gets a lot of subsidies, but Elon is very upset that the EV mandate is going to be terminated and you know what? When you look at it, who wants –– not everybody wants an electric car! I don't want an electric car. I want to have maybe gasoline, maybe electric, maybe a hybrid, maybe someday a hydrogen. If you have a hydrogen car, it has one problem: it blows up, you know."
