"He wants to be involved. Now look, he’s running big businesses and all that, so he can’t, really, I don’t think he could be cabinet... He can sort of, as the expression goes, consult with the country and give you some very good ideas," Trump told The Shawn Ryan Show, as quoted by US media.
Trump emphasized that he had an excellent relationship with Musk, who stated earlier that he was willing to take up a position in the White House. The entrepreneur also posted an image of himself behind a podium, with the caption "Department of Government Efficiency."
