Musk just dropped a comment that's getting everyone talking. He called his DOGE stint "somewhat successful" but made it clear—he wouldn't sign up for round two.

Now here's the thing. When Musk says something worked "somewhat," that's basically his version of a mixed review. Not a total win, not a disaster either. Just... complicated.

The real kicker? That hard pass on doing it again. Makes you wonder what went down behind the scenes. Was it the bureaucracy? The politics? Or maybe just the sheer chaos of trying to shake up an entire government system?

Whatever the case, it sounds like one experiment he's ready to leave in the past. No encores on this one.
