Elon Musk reflects on his time leading the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), calling it 'somewhat successful' but states he wouldn't do it again.
Musk mentions he would have preferred to focus on his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, instead of his political role, which led to vandalism and protests against Tesla.
Doge, created under Trump, aimed to reduce government size, saving an estimated $214bn, but faced legal challenges and reversals.
Musk's involvement in politics caused a temporary fallout with Trump, but their relationship has since mended.
Despite controversies, Musk praises Trump's humor and acknowledges some success in stopping nonsensical government funding.
