Trump spoke to reporters in a photo op at Mar-a-Lago as he signed executive actions and spoke about billionaire Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
One exchange went viral after a reporter tried to ask Trump a “gotcha” question about Musk and his actual “title” at DOGE.
Trump responded by pulling out a piece of paper and listing off several of the recent findings by DOGE, which showed even more waste, fraud, and abuse that the American people want to eliminate.
REPORTER: In a court filing, the White House said that Elon Musk is not a DOGE employee and has no authority to make decisions. Can you clarify for us today (inaudible)?
PRESIDENT TRUMP: Elon Musk is. Yeah. Yeah, Elon is to me a patriot. So, you know, you could call him an employee, you could call him a consultant, you could call him whatever you want. But he’s a patriot.
I mean, look at the kind of things I just said. So just in case that question got elsewhere. And which I’m surprised it took so long, actually. But you know what? Ukraine is a bigger deal because
people are dying by the thousands a week. Thousands.
But look at this, from 90 to 99. Social Security, 6 million, 54,000 people. Well, that’s okay. Maybe that’s possible. You know, 92, to 90, 99, maybe it’s possible. That’s a lot of people, though, at that.
But people that live to 100 to 109, 4,734,000. Wow. That’s a lot. That means over 100 years old. 4 million people. I don’t know. I know there’s so many. I know people that are doing great in their 90s, but not too many people over 100, but over 120 from 120 years old. People that are 120 years old, up to 129, 3,472,000 people.
Wow! You know, that can’t possibly be because the record is like I think as one person, a woman lived to 127, but they have 3472.
Okay. But now we’re going really in people from 130 years old to 139 year old, 3,936,000. Wow. I wonder if people are getting paid with all this. I mean, are these checks And that’s what we’re checking right now.
