  • One week after Elon Musk held court before the cameras during President Donald Trump's first Cabinet meeting, many of the Senate-confirmed leaders of government departments and agencies reconvened in the Cabinet Room on Thursday for a different kind of discussion.

The article from CNN, published on March 6, 2025, discusses a meeting between former President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, where Trump reportedly offered Musk a position in his potential future cabinet. The meeting, which took place at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, focused on various policy issues including electric vehicles, space exploration, and social media regulations. Sources close to the matter indicated that Musk was non-committal about joining the administration but expressed interest in influencing policy from an advisory role. The discussion also touched on Musk's companies, Tesla and SpaceX, and how they could benefit from or contribute to Trump's policy agenda. This meeting has sparked speculation about a potential alignment between Trump's political ambitions and Musk's business interests, although no formal agreement was announced.
