President Trump expressed his desire for his Cabinet members to take charge of the federal government's overhaul, restricting Elon Musk's previously broad authority related to the DOGE initiative. Trump emphasized the importance of Cabinet continuity for informed decision-making over a longer tenure. Despite acknowledging Musk's contributions, Trump advocated for a strategic approach rather than a rapid overhaul. He communicated that while Musk has played a significant role, the Cabinet should take the lead to ensure better governance and staff management.
I want the Cabinet members to go first, keep all the people you want, everybody you need. It would be better if they were there for two years instead of two weeks, because in two years they'll know the people better.
Although DOGE was originally Musk's idea, now that the task force has an official administrator, Trump is distancing the billionaire from it, at least in some public channels.
