00:00I think that that's a hard part, isn't it? Because we've also seen during his 130 days with the Trump administration, Tesla has sunk.
00:12Tesla has gone through a really hard time reputationally with Elon Musk being Donald Trump's first body.
00:21Yeah, I think so. And I looked at the shares went up 2 percent today, but they're down 11 percent sort of year to date.
00:30But the Q1 profit was also down 71 percent. And like you said, the reputational damage.
00:35So I think I think Elon Musk, OK, whether you like him or not, and you clearly you don't.
00:42I think he will go down as one of the key figures of this century.
00:45Everything that he has done, you know, becoming the richest man in the world, the sort of the Tesla, the rockets, even like the potentially Hyperloop.
00:54And, you know, he's relatively young. He's got a lot more to do.
00:57So I think his legacy will probably be fine. But I think when he writes his autobiography at some point, he'll probably regret this stage.
01:05And I think the 130 days is probably good that he's gotten out now.
01:09But I do think the sort of the aspiration to sort of reign in the civil service and look for waste is admirable and it is good.
01:17And a lot of governments have sort of taken on that sort of initiative and adopted it.
01:21And so I think that is possibly a good thing.
01:24I don't think it's been as easy as he thought in the same way when he sort of restructured X or Twitter.
01:31I don't think it's been as easy as he thought in the same way when he was there.
