Trump urges Elon Musk to be ‘more aggressive'

ISTANBUL

US President Donald Trump on Saturday urged Elon Musk to be “more aggressive” in his efforts, likely referencing Musk’s role in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), aimed at reducing federal spending.

“ELON IS DOING A GREAT JOB, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HIM GET MORE AGGRESSIVE,” Trump posted on Truth Social.

He suggested the US needs to be saved and added the ultimate goal is to "MAKE (it) GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE.”

Musk, a billionaire and Trump supporter, has been a key figure in the administration’s push to streamline government operations.
