Names have been in the news about who Trump has invited to help him run the government—his closest advisors. Billionaires abound.
Elon Musk, currently the world’s richest man, has a net worth of 323 BILLION dollars. Since his job description will be as an “outside advisor,” he will NOT be subject to “conflict of interest” laws. He will be able to use his position to further enrich himself.
His co-head of the “government efficiency commission” will be Vivek Ramaswamy, who is worth 1.1 billion dollars. He made his money in the pharmaceutical industry and in the medical world of biotech.
Both of these so-called “outside advisors” will be able to use their position to further enrich themselves. Talk about pigs at the government trough!
Not yet officially part of the new administration are the Cabinet picks and staff nominations. There appears to be no shortage of billionaires, real estate moguls, Wall Street sharks and corporate lobbyists among the ranks of Trump’s picks. Soon all the little piggies will go, “Wee, wee, wee!” all the way home—after a stop at the bank!
