Continuing with his statement, Kevin expressed how there is a need for Musk to intervene. Supporting his decision, Kevin says that Musk has exceptional "executive skills." He explained,

Shark Tank Investor Kevin O'Leary shares his thoughts on Elon Musk's initiative

Elon Musk is reportedly heading to the White House. Shark Tank's Kevin O'Leary supports his decision, which has come after the government released information about their spending cuts. Talking about how no one has ever done this before, Kevin says,

"No one's ever done an exercise like this. I thought he'd get a lot more pushback from Congress and he's not. He's going in there with a spatula, and he's scraping out billions of dollars and people are okay with it."

O'Leary said this because he had expected pushback from the government towards Elon, but that is not the case in America right now.

The Tesla billionaire has found a creative way to reduce government spending and it will only benefit the American economy and people. Shark Tank investor Kevin emphasizes that after all, it is the "taxpayers' money" that is being used, and saving it will only benefit the citizens who are paying those taxes.

Appreciating Elon, Kevin said,

"And after all, it's taxpayers' money. Why not do this? If you sit around your kitchen table, you've got to have a budget every year. Why can't we apply the same kind of philosophy to Government?"

Kevin continues by saying that even if Elon is a "controversial" person in the political arena, there is no backlash towards him in this decision because everyone understands that this is a good one.

He talked about the entrepreneur's success in industries such as automobile and social media, and now he is dipping his hands in the political landscape. Elon should be appreciated for his skills and the reforms he might bring to the government. Shark Tank's Kevin says,

"And that's why he is getting a lot of latitude and a lot of slack, even though he's a controversial guy. Look at the execution skills he has. There's nobody like him. Let him do his thing."

The Shark Tank investor pointed out that Elon's efforts were supported by the citizens as well. He had talked about people who sit at the "kitchen table" and decide on a budget every year. This is the same approach that should be applied by the government to shape their spending and budget for the country.
