Elon Musk estimates $2 trillion of waste could be eliminated from federal budget

Mr. Musk responded, “I think nearly $2 trillion. All that double spending is taxation, whether it’s direct taxation or indirect taxation, your money is being wasted,” he said. “And the Department of Government Efficiency is going to fix that.”

“We’re going to get the government out of your back pocket and pocketbook. America is just not done. It is going to be great,” he said. “America is going to reach heights that it has never seen before.”

Mr. Musk implored Trump supporters to vote early, calling the election a “real election battle.”

“So, you need to get friends with family to vote, make sure they vote. Vote early. This is important,” he said. “We’re gonna be putting up a scorecard.”
