It’s an interview that many have been looking forward to.
President Donald Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk sat down with Sean Hannity for a chat.
The dynamic duo discussed their unexpected bromance, the media’s attempts to break it up, and their grand plans of a government makeover.
What’s interesting is that I heard a prophet mention that the Enemy is trying to cause a division between Musk and Trump.
And now we’re seeing people call that out.
Amazing time to be alive!

New York Post reports:
President Trump revealed that he looked for “somebody smarter” than billionaire Elon Musk to run the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) but couldn’t find that person.
The president and world’s richest man sat down for a joint interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, during which Trump reflected on what attracted him to Musk and explained what the public should know about his chief cost-cutter.
“You know, I wanted to find somebody smarter than him,” Trump told Hannity as Musk sat beside the 47th president.
“I searched all over. I just couldn’t do it,” he added. “I couldn’t. I really tried hard. I couldn’t find anyone smarter.”
“We settled on this guy,” Trump quipped, pointing to the X owner.
The joint interview – the duo’s first together – was taped at the White House last week.
During the sitdown, the president indicated that one of his primary goals heading into his second term in the Oval Office was to simply find “great people” to staff his administration and that while he only knew Musk “a little bit” before last year, he admired the way the tech tycoon “fought hard” in the private sector.
“I wanted great people. And he’s a great person. He’s an amazing person. He’s also a caring person,” Trump said.
“He’s a good person, a very good person, and he wants the country to do well,” the president went on, asserting that Musk wouldn’t be involved in any DOGE decisions where he might have a conflict of interest.
“If there’s a conflict, he won’t be involved,” Trump declared. “I mean, I wouldn’t want that, and he wouldn’t want it.”
ADVERTISEMENTThe president noted his support for eliminating Biden-era electric vehicle mandates will probably hurt Musk’s bottom line.
“He’s a very different kind of a character,” Trump said of Musk, touting the South African-born entrepreneur’s ability to attract “high-IQ individuals” to serve in the federal government.
Musk, who has set an ambitious goal to cut $1 trillion in federal spending, described Trump’s 2024 win as “an opportunity to fix the system” but not a fix in itself.
May the Lord bless and protect these two and may they pulverize anything standing in their way.
