‘I ran with it’: Musk regrets wielding chainsaw at CPAC

Elon Musk regrets wielding a chainsaw at CPAC, admitting it “lacked empathy.” He received the chainsaw from Argentine President Javier Milei, symbolizing budget cuts. This follows a dispute with Donald Trump over federal subsidies, with Trump suggesting Musk might return to South Africa without them.
