The presidential candidate and former president Donald Trump has said that the owner of Tesla, SpaceX, and Twitter could lead a “government efficiency commission” if Trump wins the elections in November.

In his speech yesterday at the Economic Club of New York, he said that Musk had agreed to oversee a “full financial and performance audit of the entire federal government” and that he would make “recommendations for drastic reforms.”
Musk responded on Twitter by writing: “I am looking forward to serving the United States if the opportunity arises. I do not need a salary, a title, or recognition.”
Both Trump and Musk spoke about the need for a government efficiency commission in a Twitter conversation in August and Elon Musk that was a complete disaster. But the seed of the idea took root strongly.
Elon Musk was already part of an advisory panel for Trump during the former president’s term, but he resigned in 2017 after Trump decided to withdraw the United States from the Paris climate agreement.
Although Musk has consistently claimed to be politically neutral, he has leaned more towards the right since he bought Twitter in 2022 and supported Trump in July. And it is believed that he is contributing to a fundraising group for Trump’s campaign, although he has denied it.
In a statement to the BBC, Trump campaign advisor Brian Hughes said: “It is premature to talk about any possible personnel in the next administration, but we appreciate Elon Musk’s enthusiasm and support.”
