Elon Musk joined Donald Trump in the Oval Office for a press conference on February 11. During the event, Musk was asked to clarify a false claim about sending “$50 million worth of condoms to Gaza,” which was actually meant for Mozambique. When pressed about accuracy, Musk admitted, “Some of the things that I say will be incorrect and should be corrected,” adding, “We will make mistakes, but we’ll act quickly to correct any mistakes.”
Trump’s reaction—raising his eyebrows and smirking—quickly caught attention. Social media users commented on his expression, with one saying, “Trump’s reaction to that question is priceless,” and another noting, “Lmao, one expression at the right time says more than any explanation.”
Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), claimed his team works closely with agency heads and that he consults Trump to “double-check things.” He later tweeted a clip of the exchange with the caption: “$50M of condoms is a LOT of condoms.”
The conference also touched on Musk’s new role, with him sporting a ‘Make America Great Again’ cap. However, the condom controversy remained the highlight of the event.
