Former US President Donald Trump and Elon Musk

Tech billionaire Elon Musk could play a major role in a potential second Donald Trump administration, according to the former US president, who revealed plans for a unique position during a Fox News interview on Sunday.
In a conversation with Maria Bartiromo on ‘Sunday Morning Futures’, Donald Trump praised Musk, calling him “a great business guy” and “a great cost-cutter.” He added, “He [Musk] said, ‘I could cut costs without affecting anybody.’”
When asked if Musk would join his Cabinet should he return to office, Trump clarified, “He doesn’t want to be in the Cabinet.He just wants to be in charge of cost-cutting. We’ll have a new position: Secretary of Cost-Cutting.”
Trump went on to highlight Musk’s ambitious space ventures, saying, “He’s made me a promise to get to Mars before the end of my administration, which will be long before, hopefully, China or Russia.” Trump referenced Space Force, which he established in 2019, saying, “It’s now going to be one of our most important things.”
Musk recently appeared on the Trump campaign trail, wearing a “Dark MAGA” hat and a t-shirt with the slogan “Occupy Mars.” His first appearance took place in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Trump narrowly escaped assassination in July. Musk used the platform to warn against a potential Kamala Harris presidency, claiming it would threaten free speech. “This is no ordinary election,” Musk told supporters. “The other side wants to take away your freedom of speech.”
Trump mentioned that Musk has been actively campaigning for him in the key battleground state. “He’s actually campaigning because he says, ‘If we don’t win, we’re not going to have a country.’”
The former president expressed his determination, saying, “We just have to win. These are bad people… Joe didn’t really know too much about where he was, and Kamala is worse than him.”
