Hi, everybody. Welcome back to the show.
This is stage 0. My name is Will Walden.
I'm your host. And in today's episode, we're
going to be showing you a clip of Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
Now, Elon, in this clip explains how Doge is doing and what
they've done to uncover some secrets and some fraud and how
much money they've recovered for the government.
And then after that, it's Donald Trump explaining to his cabinet
how he views Elon Musk. Now, the second or the first
part of this shows that Donald Trump doesn't.
I think he likes him in a way like he likes him as a person.
But he says something that you'll find a little bit, I
wouldn't say shocking, but it's something that we didn't expect
over here at Stage Zero. And that is that he says that he
doesn't really need Elon. And you'll listen to the clip
and then let me know in the comments if you have comments on
your podcast platform. If you don't have comments on

All right, here's Elon talking to Trump's cabinet and then
Trump talking about Elon. Notice what Trump says about
Elon. Years.
Something that should have happened decades ago.
And you know that. You've known that for a long
time. That's why you have us all
working on this. You came into an emergency
situation where President Biden left us with a $1.2 trillion
trade deficit. It's the largest of any country
in human history. The largest.
So you declared an emergency. You took action.
The largest in history, right in.
History on the planet? Never.
Been never been anything like what he left us.
He left us a mess. His whole administration was a
mess. So go ahead.
So, So you declared an emergency, you imposed a trade
action. So now you have a tariff on the
world. It promotes US manufacturing and
protects US workers. And you've also given room for
negotiation during this time so we can open export markets for
our farmers and other producers and American workers.
And This is why the unions vote for you.
This is why the workers vote for you.
This is why the families want you to be the president because
you're standing up for American workers in American communities.
We've had countries come in over the past couple of weeks that
represent more than half of global domestic GDP, more than
half. That's who's coming in to talk
to you and to your your advisors about how to how to have
reciprocal trade, how to have fair trade.
What have happened to that? Well, thanks to your fantastic
leadership, this amazing cabinet and the very talented DOGE team,
I'm excited to announce that we, we, we anticipate savings in
FY20 6 from reduction of waste and fraud by $150 billion.
And I mean, and some of it is just absurd, like people getting
unemployment insurance who haven't been born yet.
I mean, I think anyone can appreciate whether I mean, come
on, that's just crazy. So you know, some of these
things that people ask me like, well, how are you going to find
waking forward in the in the government?
I'm like, well, actually just go in any direction.
That's how you find it. It's just, it's very common.
It's it's as military would say, target rich environment.
So, so I think we're doing a lot of good and excellent
collaboration with Cabinet to achieve these savings and it
will actually result in better services for the American people
and that we're going to be spending their tax dollars in a
way that is sensible and and fair and good.
And your people are fantastic. In fact, hopefully they'll stay
around for the long haul. We'd like to keep as many as we
can. They're great.
Smart, sharp, right? Finding figures that nobody
would have thought of that very computer savvy, the work.
Work was quite hard to get the that the Trump old card
operational, hopefully in the next week or so.
Labor. Department has confirmed that.
400. $1,000,000. Went to fake people for
unemployment benefits. I just.
Wanted your initial reaction. To that.
I just heard it from Lori, and I appreciate it.
And you heard it from Elon's people, right?
That's right. Elon's done a fantastic job.
Look, he's sitting here and I don't care.
I don't need Elon for anything other than I happen to like him.
But I'm telling you, this guy, this guy did a fantastic job.
I don't need his car. I actually bought 1 because and
they said, oh, did you get a bargain?
No, I said give me the top price.
I paid a lot of money for that car.
But honestly, he makes he makes a great car.
You know what I do with it? I let the people in the office
drive around in it. Margo and Natalie, they're all
Chamberlain. They're all driving around the
most beautiful car. It's gorgeous.
But I did that as a sign of just a show of support.
Numerous people have done that. Just a show of support because,
you know, he's done a fantastic job, but he hasn't been treated
properly. He hasn't been treated.
Yeah. Mr. President, can you?
Did you catch that, what Trump said about Elon?
And it's it's telling the kind of person that Trump thinks Elon
is now. And I'm not taking a side here.
I am more in favor of doing the right thing and being nice to
people than I am about anything else.
And something is telling about the way that Donald Trump just
kind of blows off Elon in this clip.
And I would say that about anybody.
I'm, I'm not for or against anything.
I just know what I hear. Right.
And if you didn't hear that, go back, rewind a little bit, check
it out. Notice how he kind of just like
brushed Elon off as one of those people that like, I don't really
need the guy. He just came in here and did
this thing. And that's cool.
You know, like that's kind of how we how we worded it.
But yeah, I mean, let me know what you think in the comments.
Let me know how you feel about this because I'm here to have a
conversation with you and we are also a community here.
