In an election year as wild as this one, we should expect a few surprises. As November looms on the horizon, Trump is pulling out all the stops. Harris, on the other hand, is hiding from the media. She has even refused to post her policy plans—and might even drop out of the debate.
The conversations happening now could very well shape the direction of the country. Donald Trump is making big vows to Americans as if he’s already won the election. He intends to hit the ground running to make America great again. And he just enlisted two heavy-hitters to reshape the government as we know it.
In a lively interview with Shawn Ryan on Sunday, Donald Trump didn’t just drop a few bombs—he unleashed a whole arsenal of excitement about his vision for America. And guess who’s in his sights for a major role? None other than the tech titan himself, Elon Musk. But don’t go thinking Musk will be stuck in some stuffy cabinet post. Nope, Trump has a different plan up his sleeve, one that’s as bold as Musk’s rockets.
Trump started by praising Musk as a “totally unusual character,” which, coming from the former president, is probably the highest form of flattery. “Do you know Elon?” Trump quipped, “He’s great, and he’s smart, and we have to cherish our geniuses, you know, we don’t have too many of them, right?” And who can argue with that? Musk, with his futuristic visions and unparalleled drive, is exactly the kind of guy Trump wants on his team—just not in the cabinet. Why? Because Musk has a more critical mission: “cutting the fat” out of the bloated federal government. And if there’s anyone who knows how to trim the excess, it’s the guy who’s been launching reusable rockets and revolutionizing electric cars.
As Trump rightly pointed out, Musk has his hands full running his empire. “I’d put him in the cabinet, absolutely,” Trump said, “But I don’t know how he could do that with all the things he’s got going.” Fair enough. So what’s the alternative? Consulting, of course! Musk might not have time for a 9-to-5 gig, but he’s ready to lend his brainpower to help tackle issues like artificial intelligence—a field where Trump acknowledges Musk is in a league of his own.
But Trump wasn’t just praising Musk. He also took a moment to spotlight Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who recently dropped out of the presidential race to support Trump. Kennedy, now poised to lead the charge in “Making America Healthy Again,” stirred up the crowd at a Trump rally in Arizona, passionately advocating for the protection of American freedoms and a safe environment for future generations.
Trump’s plans for Kennedy don’t stop at rally speeches, though. If elected, Trump pledged to make Kennedy the head of a “panel of top experts” tasked with investigating childhood health problems—a cause that Kennedy has championed for years.
As November 5 approaches, Trump’s vision for his potential administration is coming into sharper focus, and it’s packed with star power. Whether it’s Musk slashing government waste or Kennedy spearheading health reforms, one thing’s clear: Trump is all about surrounding himself with the best of the best. Buckle up, America, because if Trump gets his way, it’s going to be one wild ride!
