> I like when my software gets used by a lot of people and people send me nice emails. In this case, people weren't sending me the nicest emails, unfortunately. But they also didn't really know what I was doing. They saw DOGE, weren't a fan of certain things that they were associated with. But I think at the end of the day, like, the role of the U.S. Digital Service is to improve the UX (user experience) of being an American, which is pretty exciting. And anyone who lets me do that, I will try to work for, even if my friends and family aren't huge fans.
People weren't mad at him because he was trying to improve UX. They were mad at him because DOGE was doing a bunch of other stuff like "harassing government employees who talked about climate resilience", which he actively contributed to but conveniently omits from the interviews he's been giving recently:
