Rep. Crenshaw: Elon Musk Would Have an ‘Amazing Role’ in the Trump Administration; ‘Not the Craziest Thing in the World’

‘There’s a lot of space for thinkers like him’

EXCERPT:

CRENSHAW: "I do think Elon would have an amazing role in the administration. Now, is it just kind of randomly looking around and cutting things? I'm not so sure it's that. But you look at a guy like Elon, who‘s built such amazing businesses, taken such amazing risks, and he has a reputation for making whatever that business is a heck of a lot more efficient. So putting him in a position where he can create efficiencies is not the craziest thing in the world to think about. It‘s a pretty good idea. I would love to see him work on things like, how do we make our acquisition and contracting process in the Department of Defense more efficient so that we‘re not spending 10 times what we need to spend on whatever weapons system or even remodeling a bathroom to cost 20 times more than it should when you‘re talking about government contracting. So there's a lot of space for thinkers like him, honestly."
