Elon Musk gives his endorsement for Senate majority leader

so this morning uh the Republicans in closer to holding the House Majority and in the Senate the battle to become the next GOP leader heats up President elect Trump says whoever wants the job should back a senate tool allowing him to bypass Congress and quickly get his administration in place reconc a recess appointment I guess our next guest backs this move which quickly earned him the support from Elon Musk Senator Rick Scott joins us right now so Senator it's you against Senator Corin against senator th why are you the best choice well first happy Veterans

Day I was very proud of my father won a 3,000 people that did uh all the combat jumps with AI Airborne in the Second World War uh he told me the Germans the fox Souls the food were bad so I joined the Navy uh I'm very proud of that JD is the first Marine enlisted uh like I did Enlisted the Marines is the uh first first Marine um Vice president-elect in the United States and I've got colleagues so uh so first I want to thank every ready for their service thank God for people willing to

put on the uniform with regard to the Trump nominees we got to get them done whatever whatever it takes if it's recess appointments whatever it takes we got to get these done we know Schumer is going to slow everything down I am all on board we're going to we've got to change the direction of this country the country voted they want a change they want the Trump agenda they want his nominees they want his policies we've got to do everything we can to get that done so Senator how's your chances looking because we're talking about

a simple majority right that you have to uh get uh it looks like you got th as well as uh my Senator John Corin from the great state of Texas but they may split the vote so how's it looking for you right now I'm very optimistic I I believe I'm going to win um you know th and cor our friends um here's what I bring to the table I clearly believe in the Trump agenda number one I'm a business guy that has success doing exactly what we need to do in the Senate we need to

have a plan we need to work a plan we need to have a team we need to measure ourselves if we want to get all the nominees done we've got to figure out a plan to get it done if we want to get a balanced budget we got to start today to get a balanced budget if we want to get the border secure if we want to get whatever policies we have to get through through Congress we have to have a a plan just like what you do in business I ran a company with 285,000

employees we had a written plan for everything to get it done my colleagues have told me they want change they want to be treated as equal they want to be part of a team they want to have an agenda they want to have a great relationship with the house they know I have a great relationship with speaker Mike Johnson uh so I'm very optimistic uh that I'm going to win because I'm representing Trump's agenda and what my colleagues want so you have Elon Musk in your corner you have Senator Marco Ruby in your corner but

it's a secret ballot do you have Trump in your corner well I'm hope you know look I I hope he weighs in in welcome his support but so you know that's up to him I Tommy tub supported me U Bill Hagerty supported me uh the Ron Johnson supporting me and you know there's other people that you have clearly um would would like what I'm talking about but you know it's a secret ballot so we'll see if they come out publicly and support me but I'm going to work hard uh I believe I'm going to win

because I represent exactly what the Trump uh Team wants and what Trump wants and what the American public wants we have a great Republican party across the country we need to have a Republican party representing us as leader in the Senate so let's go to some other news because what's happening in PA I think it's kind of disgraceful right now uh the race has been called by the AP many Publications but you got your leader who is not going to allow him to go to the orientation and you got your colleague Senator Mike Lee saying

that he will personally escort Dave McCormack into the capital for the orientation so what is your thought process on this well they did the same thing to me six years ago they they didn't let me they didn't let me go through orientation uh so um I mean Schumer blocked it uh and you know um you know our lead at the time didn't help um so the uh help me so it's the exact same thing uh so look Schumer is going to do everything he can to block the Trump agenda we have got to have a

leader that's willing to stand up and say no way we are going to do the right thing and we're going to stand up for our our rights here I mean Dave McCormick won he won fair and square uh he got a he got more votes than his opponent Bob Casey he needs to be part of orientation uh so I look forward to him uh coming up I look forward to hopefully seeing him today or tomorrow and I'll do everything I can to help him become a successful Senator all right uh Senator good luck with you

vote on Wednesday right so we'll we'll see what's going to happen we'll get a majority leader all right uh thanks so much I'm Dey I'm Brian kilme and I'm Angley aart and click here to subscribe to the Fox News YouTube page to catch our hottest interviews and most compelling analysis
