According to Foresight News, Trump said on Shawn Ryan's podcast that if he is elected president, he may not be able to let Musk serve in the White House cabinet because he needs to run multiple companies and his schedule is busy, but he can participate in discussions and provide advice.

Foresight News previously reported that Trump said that if he is elected as the next US president, he would consider canceling the $7,500 electric vehicle tax credit and would consider letting Musk serve in a cabinet or advisory role if he is willing.
