    If Trump wins, Musk will effectively have purchased a seat in the federal government. How democratic.

      Just like trump’s last cabinet where he appointed people who donated large amounts of money to him.

      Pretty sure every president does that. Aren’t ambassador jobs to allied foreign governments essentially gifts to friends or donors? Of course were talking about cabinet positions but it seems to me cabinets positions usually go to who kissed the most ass instead of who’s most qualified. When’s the last time secretary of education went to some who has actually taught a class?
