Trump Considering Elon Musk As Adviser If He Wins: Report

It could be the formation of a new dream team that will have liberals furious.

Former President Donald Trump is said to be eyeing Tesla CEO Elon Musk for a spot in his administration if he becomes President of the United States again, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The courtship reportedly began when the former president met the CEO at the home of billionaire investor Nelson Peltz.

The CEO would be pegged to advise the former president on matters related to the economy and border security, the report said.

The two billionaires reportedly informed the former president of their plan to create a data driven project to combat voter fraud and another plan to steer donors away from President Joe Biden.

“Trump has told Musk, one of the world’s wealthiest people, he wants to find a way to get him more involved if he wins in November,” the report said.

“Musk plans to continue organizing for his anti-Biden cause among an elite group of business leaders whom he counts as friends, people familiar with the plans said,” it said.

But there is an even more concerning part of the story for President Bidne and his campaign.

“Musk, Peltz and other Trump backers are planning to continue hosting more salon-style dinners and gatherings across the country targeting wealthy, powerful people in business, a person familiar with the matter said. The idea is more about emphasizing what Musk and Peltz see as Biden’s shortcomings than trumpeting Trump himself, this person said,” the report said.

The former president’s team responded to the report in vague terms.

“President Trump will be the only voice of what role an individual plays in his presidency,” senior Trump adviser Brian Hughes said to The New York Post.

“But it has been widely reported and is demonstrated in a number of ways, that many of the nation’s most important leaders in technology and innovation are concerned with the damage done to their industry by Biden’s failures to handle our economy and his moves to overburden innovators with government bureaucracy and unrelenting regulation,” he said.
