The knock I have on Elon Musk is that he was born in South Africa, so he was not actually eligible.

These kind of old boomers like Bolton and Barr. The people who slowed down Donald Trump. You know, if you put Elon Musk in the White House, you shouldn't even deal with these people. He should just blow up all the agencies that go around him.

Let me answer that in, I think, a way that will be relatively accessible to readers of The New York Times. You've probably heard of a man named Franklin Delano Roosevelt. And I do a speech sometimes where I'll just read the last 10 paragraphs of FDR's first inaugural address, in which FDR essentially says to the American people, hey, Congress, give me absolute power or I'll take it anyway.

So did FDR actually take that level of power? Yeah, he did. And so there's a great piece that I've sent to some of the people that I know that are involved in the transition. Who? I mean, there's all sorts of people milling around. Name one. Name one. Wow. Name one. Well, I definitely know Mark Andreessen, and so I sent this piece to Mark Andreessen.

And it's an excerpt from the diary of Harold Ickes, who's FDR's Secretary of the Interior. And it's a little diary entry describing a cabinet meeting in 1933. And what happens in this cabinet meeting is that Francis Perkins, who's the Secretary of Labor, comes in to this meeting and is like, here, I have a list of the projects that we're going to do. FDR personally takes this list and

FDR personally takes this list and

looks at the projects in New York and is like, this is crap, this is crap, I don't know what you're doing. Like, humiliates Francis Perkins in the Oval Office or wherever they're having their cabinet meeting. And then at the end of the thing, it's like everybody agrees that the bill would be fixed and then passed through Congress. This is just a picture of FDR acting like a CEO.

And so, you know, the question of was FDR a dictator? What does it mean to be a dictator? What does this pejorative word mean? I don't know. What I know is that Americans of all stripes, Democrats, Republicans and everyone, you know, except for a few right wing Republicans, basically revere FDR and FDR ran the New Deal like a startup.

Yeah, what we see in the sort of the course of, you know, to kind of look at the objective reality of power in the U.S. since the revolution, you know, you'll talk to people about the Articles of Confederation, and you're just like, name one thing that happened in America under the Articles of Confederation, and they can't, unless they're a professional historian.

Next, you have the first constitutional period under George Washington. If you look at the administration of Washington, what you'll see is that basically what is established looks a lot like a startup. It looks so much like a startup that this guy, Alexander Hamilton, who is recognizably a startup bro, is running the whole government. He's basically the Larry Page of this republic.
