Donald Trump Hints at Cabinet Role for Elon Musk if Elected

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has hinted at the idea of offering Tesla CEO Elon Musk a position in his potential future Cabinet if he wins against Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming November election.

Trump expressed his openness to the idea in an August 19 interview with Reuters, calling Musk a "very smart guy" and saying he "certainly would" consider bringing him into his administration.

This suggestion emerged shortly after the two influential figures had a conversation on August 12 during an X Spaces session.

While Trump didn't specify which Cabinet role Musk might fill, the idea opens the door to various possibilities, including leadership roles in departments like Energy, Transportation, Commerce, or Treasury.

Musk responded to Trump's suggestion on X, humorously referencing his support for Dogecoin (DOGE).

These recent events mark a shift in their relationship. Previously, Trump had criticized Musk's plans to buy Twitter, dismissing him as a nonsense "artist", to which Musk responded that he should "hang up his hat and sail into the sunset."

However, after an attempted assassination of Trump in July, Musk publicly endorsed the former president and has since been critical of the Biden administration and Vice President Harris. Trump has reciprocated this support, praising Musk during a July rally.

There has also been speculation about Musk's financial involvement in Trump's campaign, with reports suggesting that he might contribute up to $45 million per month. Musk has denied these claims, clarifying that his financial support would go to a political action committee (PAC) aligned with Trump "at a much lower level."

Whether Musk will ultimately join a potential Trump administration remains uncertain, but the possibility adds another layer of intrigue to an already unpredictable election.

In other news, Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr., has recently announced plans to create a new decentralized finance (DeFi) platform to tackle banking inequality.
