马斯克“后悔”涉足政坛:DOGE勉强还算成功,但若重来不会再接手

Group 1 - Musk acknowledged that the "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE) he led during Trump's second term achieved only "limited success" and stated he would not take on such a role again due to its negative impact on Tesla's business [1][3] - The involvement in DOGE led to significant backlash against Musk and Tesla, including vandalism of Tesla vehicles across the U.S., which Musk believes could have been avoided had he focused solely on his company [1][3] - Investors have expressed concerns that Musk's work with DOGE distracted him from Tesla, especially as the company faces a slowdown in sales [1][3] Group 2 - Musk described DOGE's performance as "somewhat successful," claiming it prevented approximately $100 billion to $200 billion in "zombie payments" through mandatory payment codes and explanations [4] - Initial ambitious goals for DOGE included cutting $2 trillion in government spending, which were later revised down to $1 trillion and then to $150 billion, reflecting a significant reduction in expected outcomes [4][5] - The DOGE initiative was short-lived, with Musk leading the team for only five months, during which it did facilitate the layoff or buyout of thousands of federal employees [4][5] Group 3 - The relationship between Musk and his allies in the White House has seen significant fluctuations, culminating in Musk's departure from the government in May after public disputes [5] - DOGE has been confirmed to be disbanded, eight months before its originally set authorization period was to end, with claims of hundreds of billions in spending cuts that remain unverifiable due to a lack of detailed public accounting [5]
