Both billionaires appear keen to ensure taxpayers' hard-earned cash will no longer be frittered away with such reckless abandon.

South African billionaire Elon Musk may end up serving as a cabinet-level hatchet man for President Donald Trump should the Republican win in November.

In their 70-minute conversation on X Spaces last week, Musk raised the possibility of working under a future Trump administration on a novel committee tasked with eliminating inefficiencies and waste. On Monday, Trump spoke further to the possibility of having Musk on his team.

Shortly after explaining why Trump's "inspiring" reaction to being shot on July 13 was part of what prompted him to explicitly endorse the Republican, Musk broached the subject of maximizing government efficiency.

"Inflation is caused by government overspending," said Musk. "Would you agree that we need to take a look at government spending and have, perhaps, a government efficiency commission that just ... tries to make the spending sensible and so that the country lives within its means?" -- excerpt, rest at link above --

Interesting question, Isailedaway!
