Trump noted Musk’s renowned ability to cut costs in the corporate world, highlighting the tech magnate’s success in making tough decisions at companies like Tesla and SpaceX. “He said, ‘I could cut costs without affecting anybody,’” Trump added, underscoring Musk’s cost-cutting expertise.
Bartiromo followed up, asking whether Musk would be appointed to a Cabinet position. Trump quickly clarified, saying Musk wasn’t interested in a formal Cabinet role but would still play a key part in his administration. “Not in the Cabinet. He doesn’t want to be in the Cabinet. He just wants to be in charge of cost-cutting. We’ll have a new position: Secretary of cost-cutting, OK? Elon wants to do that.”
Trump also touched on Musk’s ambitions to take humanity to Mars, sharing that the billionaire had made a personal promise to achieve this milestone during Trump’s second term. “He’s made me a promise: he’ll get to Mars before the end of my administration,” Trump said with confidence. “Which will be long before, hopefully, China or Russia.”
The former president took the opportunity to remind viewers of his role in creating the U.S. Space Force, a new branch of the military he launched during his first term. “I created Space Force. First time that’s been done since the Air Force,” Trump said, stressing that the branch was critical in protecting America’s interests in space. He recalled that President Biden once laughed at the idea, but Trump believes it is now a vital part of national security.
“We were getting killed in space by China and by Russia, and now we’re leading in space,” Trump said, attributing this turnaround to his leadership and the efforts of Space Force.
The conversation took a darker turn when Trump brought up Musk’s recent warnings about the future of the country. Last week, Musk tweeted that if Trump were not elected in 2024, it could spell disaster for America. The billionaire argued that the Biden-Harris administration is rushing to grant citizenship to migrants at an unprecedented pace, potentially altering the political landscape forever.
Musk claimed that if Democrats succeed in expediting citizenship for undocumented immigrants, there would be millions of new legal voters in key swing states. This influx could shift the balance of power so drastically that swing states would no longer exist, he warned. “The voting margin in the swing states is often less than 20 thousand votes. That means if the ‘Democratic’ Party succeeds, there will be no more swing states!!” Musk wrote on social media.
He went on to accuse the current administration of flying asylum seekers directly into swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Arizona as a strategic move to secure future elections. According to Musk, this would lead to a permanent one-party rule in America, mirroring the political situation in California, which he described as a socialist nightmare.
“America then becomes a one-party state and democracy is over,” Musk concluded.

Trump’s remarks about Musk’s potential role in his administration, coupled with the tech mogul’s outspoken support for the former president, point to a close partnership between the two. While Musk has typically stayed out of the political spotlight, his increasing involvement in Trump’s re-election efforts suggests a willingness to influence the country’s future direction.
Whether or not Musk ultimately accepts a formal role in a Trump administration remains to be seen. However, the prospect of the billionaire spearheading cost-cutting efforts and advancing space exploration has undoubtedly generated excitement among Trump supporters. For now, both men seem aligned in their belief that 2024 could be a pivotal moment for the future of the United States.
In the meantime, the idea of Elon Musk as America’s “Secretary of Cost-Cutting” adds a new and intriguing dimension to the evolving 2024 race. Trump’s vision of a leaner, more efficient government might just be in Musk’s hands.
