Trump Proposes Efficiency Commission With Musk as Head
Former President Donald Trump plans to create a government efficiency commission led by Tesla CEO Elon Musk if elected in 2024, according to a senior campaign adviser. The commission would review federal government finances and performance and recommend reforms. Musk has proposed the idea in the past, tweeting that he would be willing to help the U.S. government "with no salary, stock or other compensation." Trump's campaign adviser, Bryan Hughes, said that the former president would "work with Elon Musk to figure out how to do this government efficiency commission." The proposal has been met with mixed reactions. Some experts have praised Musk's business acumen and his willingness to take on challenges. Others have expressed concerns about his lack of government experience and his sometimes controversial statements. It remains to be seen whether Trump's proposal will come to fruition. However, it is clear that the former president is serious about addressing the issue of government inefficiency. ```
