Trump pledges to tap Elon Musk to head government efficiency commission

The Republican presidential candidate says the commission would audit the entire federal government and suggest ‘drastic reforms’.

Former United States President Donald Trump has pledged to create a “government efficiency” commission headed by entrepreneur Elon Musk if he is victorious in seeking re-election this November.

Trump made the pledge as he laid out his economic vision in a campaign speech at the New York Economic Club on Thursday.

Promises of economic prosperity have been a backbone of Trump’s re-election bid in 2024, and he used Thursday’s speech to showcase his plans for a “national economic renaissance”.

They include oft-repeated proposals to slash regulations on energy production, cut government spending and lower corporate taxes for US companies.
