President Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk sat down for a joint interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity where they defended the administration’s massive overhaul of the federal government and gave some insights into their friendship.
The interview was the latest display of Trump putting Musk in the spotlight following an Oval Office appearance by the Tesla CEO last week in which he fielded several questions from reporters while the president sat at the Resolute Desk.
Hannity, who offered both men praise during the interview, at one point assessed: “I feel like I’m interviewing two brothers here.”
Here are four takeaways from the interview.
