Elon Musk Will Join Donald Trump's Economic Advisory Team
The CEO of the world’s most well-known electric car company, and a man who once claimed climate change was a hoax invented by the Chinese. Doesn’t sound like a match made in heaven, does it?
We are - of course - talking about Tesla CEO Elon Musk and President Elect Donald Trump. The former has been critical of the businessman turned politician in the past - once stating that “I think a bit strongly that Trump is probably not the right guy [to be US president]. But despite this, and being worlds apart in terms of environmental views (Trump has named climate change skeptic Scott Pruitt as the EPA’s future big cheese, among some other dubious appointments), he’s just been announced as part of next President’s economic advisory team.
Uber CEO Travis Kalanick - another Trump critic who once joked he’d move to China in the event of the man getting into the White House - has also joined the team.
Musk, Kalanick, PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi, General Motors CEO Mary Barra and other recently announced members of the board will: “meet with the president frequently to share their specific experience and knowledge as the president implements his plan to bring back jobs and Make America Great Again.”

Thats SHOCKING! :o
Appropriately used this time, Sir.
Hmmm..a Tesla Limo with all the President’s safety features is something I’d like to see. Can Trump get rid of the Cadillac ‘Beast’?
Admittedly, if Trump switched from Cadillac to Tesla… I’d… I’d actually have some serious respect for the new president.
It’ll be interesting to see. Electric cars are ending soon and then we’ll only see electric buses payed by the Goverment since they can pay for the huge price since electric is only going to get more exepensive. However will trump switch to Telsa before, doubt it but we’ll see.
It’ll even be heavier than the fat turds they use, but hopefully it’ll be quick.
And I’m lost, Musk. I’m lost, down the back of the fridge, with a warranty card and a missing rice cooker attachment.
it makes sense, how best to give you raw advices how the people that have proven to express they opinion and being a yes man…
however the next tesla factory will be in Europe, I don’t think Trump will like that…
musk: electric
trump: gas
WHITE HOUSE CIVIL WAR
(I can’t be bothered to make the avengers meme picture so use your imagination)
People: hybrid
Smart man - bring on the people who you don’t agree with, to get real outside opinions from people who have proven to be successful
You know, when you think of it like that, it shows that he isn’t such an extremist as everyone claims he is
