00:00I'll let you go. It's not a big secret that you had your differences with Elon Musk when he was
00:05working in the administration. He announced this weekend that he is starting a new political party.
00:10Does that worry the Trump administration? Look, the principles of Doge were very popular. I think
00:17if you looked at the polling, Elon was not. So I believe that the boards of directors at his
00:23various companies wanted him to come back and run those companies, which he is better at than anyone.
00:29So I imagine that those board of directors did not like this announcement yesterday and will be
00:34encouraging him to focus on his business activities, not his political activities.
00:39Thank you, Mr. Secretary. Appreciate your time. Thank you.
