Former President Donald Trump on Monday said he would offer Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk a Cabinet position or an advisory role in his administration if he wins a second term in the White House.
Trump told Reuters in an interview that he would tap Musk for such a position “if he would do it.”
But the Republican nominee also said he would consider getting rid of a $7,500 tax credit for certain new electric vehicles. That could affect business for Tesla, which sells EVs.

Maybe he's thinking of offering Musk a government role as a reward for his support, since Trump has declared that he will oppose what he calls the green scam. This is rather ironic, considering that Musk makes electric cars.

The electoral scenario in the United States has led Trump to promise everything, leaving Democrats unsure of whom to elect and voters unsure of whom to vote for.
