RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
>> Yeah. Good point. We saw how much influence Elon Musk had in last week‘s debate here in Washington over government spending. What do you make of Musk‘s role in Trump‘s party?
>> Well, listen, he‘s got a very powerful role. He‘s got a $44 billion megaphone. He‘s got over 200 plus million followers and wolf, he was instrumental in that election. The stuff that Elon Musk did in Pennsylvania alone, I think helped the president win that election. So he has a very big voice. I think the problem for Elon Musk, though, he‘s got a little bit of potomac fever. And so you think you‘re going to go to Washington and change Washington. That‘s potomac fever. And the weird thing about potomac fever is the one of the symptoms is you don‘t know you have potomac fever. And of course, I have had potomac fever, wolf. So I‘m speaking as a former patient that‘s been afflicted with the disease. So he‘s just got to be very, very careful because he‘s making enemies and he doesn‘t realize. And the incentives in Washington are totally different than those in business. And so everybody is incentivized in a different and sometimes irrational way. And I think the power that he‘s wielding right now, Washington has a great immunological system, and I think they‘ll find a way to rebut him. So I would I would say to Elon Musk that he would listen to me, but stick to business. You‘ve done great. You‘ve made a couple hundred billion dollars since the election. Uh, lay off the gas on politics a little bit because these people, these people could hurt you. And it‘s no no need for you to get hurt. You‘re doing so well in your life.
