Speaking with Sean Hannity in a recent interview, Department of Government Efficiency head Elon Musk commented on how the left utterly hates him, and quite shows that white-hot-rage, over his attempts to demolish the federal bureaucracy, and that he thinks their anger shows he is “over the target” with DOGE.
Beginning, Musk commented on “the eye-daggers” he gets from the left whenever they see him, saying, “The eye-daggers — eye-daggers level is insane. I mean, there was, like — I had, like, some — some invitation because — so, I got invited to, like, so- — basically, a big, sort of, damn — damn event like that was — but I’d received the invitation, like, the beginning of last year and then — and I still attended, even after I’d endorsed President Trump, and I didn’t realize how profoundly that would affect, you know, how I was received. I mean, I walk into the room and I’m getting just the dirty looks from — from everyone. Like, if looks could kill, I would have been dead several times over.”
Then, after he and Hannity went back and forth bit about the timing of that incident, Musk said, I — I just — doesn’t seem strange? Like, what — what is up with this total, like, madness?” Hannity then asked him, “You’re smarter than me. Can you — I actually think that there’s a level of irrationality. It’s almost like a trigger and —” Musk chimed in, “It totally triggers.”
Hannity then told him, “And it’s like — look, I — I’ve been on TV — this is my 29th year. I’ve been on radio 35 years. I will — I’ve gone hard in the paint to — for candidates that lost. And guess what? I get over it.” Musk said, “Sure. Yeah, yeah.” Hannity then said, “And I just keep doing my show, and I just — you know, I come back to fight another day.”
He added, “So, here’s the big — then this is the million dollar or billion dollar — I’m among billionaires — question. So, you have all this going on and you stop, in a way — you’re still doing it — and you partner with him. And this is what you get for it from the Democrats. You get “nobody voted for Elon.” Well, nobody voted for any of your Cabinet nominees. Okay? “People are dying because of DOGE cuts.” I’ll give you a chance to respond to all that. “What DOGE is doing is illegal.” “Elon Musk is” — more street vernacular for a male body part. “It’s a constitutional crisis.”’
Musk then, after asking, “How c- — why — why are they reacting like this?,” noted that DOGE seems over the target based on the left’s total and utter freakout over DOGE’s relatively minor trimmings of the federal fat so far. He said, “We must be over the target or doing something right.”
He added, “They wouldn’t be complaining so much if we weren’t doing something useful… What we’re really trying to do here is restore the will of the people through the president. And what we’re finding is that there’s an unelected bureaucracy — speaking of unelected, there’s a vast federal bureaucracy that is implacably opposed to the president and the Cabinet.”
Musk then turned to how far-left DC is, saying, “And you look at, say, D.C. voting. It’s 92 percent Kamala. Okay, so we’re in 92 percent Kamala. That’s a lot.” He added, “I think about that number a lot. I’m like, 92 percent. That’s, basically, almost everyone. And so — but if — but how can you — if — if the will of the president is not implemented, and the president is representative of the people, that means the will of the people is not being implemented, and that means we don’t live in a democracy, we live in a bureaucracy. And so, I think what we’re seeing here is the — sort of, the thrashing of the bureaucracy as we try to restore democracy and the will of the people.”
