Donald Trump, in a recent interview, revealed which cabinet role he has in mind for Tesla CEO Elon Musk. The latest comment of the former US President, as seen in an interview with Shawn Ryan, has fueled discussions in the broader technology sector as well as in the crypto market. Notably, last week, the Republican US Presidential candidate unveiled his plans in a Reuters interview to offer a role for the Tesla CEO in cabinet or his advisory team, if elected.

Donald Trump Reveals Cabinet Role For Elon Musk

During an interview with former Navy SEAL Shawn Ryan, the former US President expressed his admiration for Elon Musk. In addition, Donald Trump hints at a cabinet position for the billionaire. However, the former US President acknowledged the challenge of Musk juggling his numerous ventures, including Tesla and SpaceX.

Considering that, he proposed an alternative role as a federal cost-cutting consultant. Notably, the former US president praised the Tesla CEO’s expertise, particularly in artificial intelligence (AI). A Bloomberg report, citing the latest interview, notes that Trump stated:

He could sort of, as the expression goes, ‘consult’ with the country and give you some very good ideas, like on AI.

Meanwhile, the comments from the former US President are the latest in a series of interactions between the two recently. Earlier this month, Trump and Musk engaged in a lengthy discussion on Musk’s platform X, where they explored the idea of a government commission to review federal expenditures.

Musk, who has increasingly aligned himself with right-leaning figures, expressed his willingness to contribute to such a commission, with Trump calling him the “greatest cutter.”

Elon Musk’s Growing Influence In US Political Landscape

Musk’s involvement in Washington has deepened in recent years, as his companies secure significant government contracts. His support for Trump, including the creation of a super political action committee to back Trump’s reelection, signals a strengthening alliance between the two. Musk’s advisory role could expand significantly if Trump returns to power, particularly in areas like electric vehicles and cryptocurrency policy.

The involvement of Musk in Washington has deepened in recent years, with his ventures securing key government contracts. In addition, his recent backing for Donald Trump signals a growing alliance between the two. However, many have criticized the Trump-Musk alliance, warning over potential bias on Elon Musk’s social media platform, X.

Meanwhile, earlier this month, Trump revealed his plans to offer a cabinet or advisory role to Elon Musk. Having said that, it is expected Musk’s advisory role could expand significantly if the former US President returns to power, particularly in areas like EVs, AI, and crypto policy.

Notably, the prospect of Musk playing a key role in the Trump administration comes after the tech mogul endorsed Trump for president last month. Musk’s influence is poised to grow, especially given his recent activity in political circles.

On August 20, following Trump’s comments in the Reuters interview, Musk responded on social media by saying “I am willing to serve.” He posted that with a picture labeled D.O.G.E (Department of Government Efficiency), indicating his willingness to serve in a government capacity.
