Washington, D.C.: Tech billionaire and DOGE chief Elon Musk made waves once again at President Donald Trump’s Cabinet meeting, this time with a striking fashion statement. Musk, known for his eccentric style choices, arrived wearing a bold new MAGA hat—but instead of the signature slogan, his red cap bore the message: “Trump was right about everything”.
A Different Look for a Political Statement
Musk’s outfit at the high-profile meeting also stood out. He paired the cap with a sleek black suit jacket over a plain black shirt, a noticeable contrast to his previous appearance, where he had sported a ‘tech support’ shirt beneath a dark MAGA hat.
Unlike other Cabinet attendees, Musk was the only one wearing a statement piece, ensuring that his support for Trump took center stage. His consistent display of MAGA-themed attire at political gatherings has cemented his position as one of Trump’s most vocal allies in the tech industry.
Trump Calls Musk ‘A Patriot’
During the meeting, President Trump took a moment to acknowledge Musk’s contributions and his unwavering support:
“Elon’s a patriot. We want to thank you very much for the job you’re doing, thank you very much”.
Musk responded with humility, stating:
“Just trying to do the right thing for the American taxpayer and for the American people”.
His growing political involvement has sparked debate, as he continues to balance his leadership roles at Tesla, SpaceX, and X (formerly Twitter) while also engaging in government advisory discussions.
Exposing Government Fraud
During the meeting, Musk also brought attention to an instance of government fraud involving the Small Business Administration (SBA), revealing that $330 million in loans had been granted to individuals under the age of 11.

Musk humorously quipped:
“Very precocious baby we’re talking about here”, prompting laughter in the room.
A Nod to the DOGE Team
In a rare heartfelt moment, Musk also took time to appreciate his team at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE):
“Just a thank you to the DOGE team who are likely going to get threats and being accosted. A lot of them are just kids, you know, they’re just trying to help out. And they’re very talented, they could get jobs and earn millions of dollars a year. Instead, they come here to earn peanuts and get death threats, so thanks to the DOGE team”.
His comments received applause from Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and other members in attendance.

Later, during an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, Trump took a lighthearted jab at Musk’s style, referencing the casual dress code of the DOGE team:
“What [Musk] does is he takes it and with his hundred geniuses. He’s got some very brilliant young people working for him that dress much worse than him, actually. They dress in t-shirts. You wouldn’t know they have a 180 IQ”.
While Musk’s influence continues to grow in both the tech and political spheres, his latest MAGA hat message has once again dominated headlines, ensuring that his support for Trump remains unmistakably clear.
