Trump Defends Elon Musk with a Smile: ‘He’s Not Shy!’ | Elon Musk’s Press Moment Incoming?

President Donald Trump defended Elon Musk amid Democratic backlash over his access to Treasury payment systems. During a press conference with Japan’s PM Ishiba, Trump dismissed concerns, calling Musk "not shy" and praising his efforts in uncovering government fraud.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent backed Musk, calling him the "greatest entrepreneur." Meanwhile, Democrats accuse Musk of having undue influence after reports surfaced that DOGE found payments linked to fraudulent groups.

The controversy intensifies as Musk’s role in Trump’s administration grows.
