- While Musk achieved some strategic advantages by instilling fear within the bureaucracy, he also damaged Tesla's image through controversial remarks on his X platform.
- His connection to Trump's 'Golden Dome' project could divert significant taxpayer funds to his businesses, though its impact on national security remains uncertain.
- Musk faces the challenge of improving his public image after failing a critical test in Wisconsin and potentially losing Trump's support.
His DOGE experiment resulted in operational turmoil, legal entanglements, and limited results, overshadowing modest gains . . . less a triumph than a cautionary tale.— Grok, Musk's AI platform reflecting on his time in Washington.
