Elon Musk’s Father Says His Son ‘Will Succeed’ In New Role Advising Trump On Government Efficiency

Elon Musk is to jointly lead a new US Department of Government Efficiency that will advise President-elect Donald Trump’s White House on how to reform and make savings in the federal government.

Elon’s father, Errol, tells Talk’s Ian Collins that his son is well-suited for the role due to his achievements building Tesla and SpaceX.

Errol says Elon's focus will be on operational efficiency rather than just job cuts.

He did at X, why wouldn't he apply the same rules???

God I wish we had the Trump team running this country today, where are the people with spines in this country?

Elon is very like his father. Which is good to see.
Elon is a good person and he has always said that he likes to help humanity

Fascinating interview with Musk's father. He's right that Elon couldn't have prospered in Britain - and certainly not under a Labour regime.

[Dkriedt]

Wonderful to see his father interviewed.

[guccipupsy]

He must be so proud of his son Elon, he must be a fantastic father to have so much success in all his children, well done Mr Musk

Love seeing the smile on his father's face. Can see how proud he is good stuff. Love it! Go on Musks.

I don't care how sad it sounds Elon musk is a hero of mine for many reasons

[AvaT]

I feel sorry for Elon that he was raised by this hate filled abusive father. Look how well Elon has done despite the abuse!

[romaray]

Great talk. Very incisive and to the point. 🐬🌸🐬🌸🐬

[ivernrobin]

Elon is living in the future the guy knows everything

[chijavier]

Ian sounds very sceptical and quite negative of Elon almost like he dislikes him.

[Frenchie]

Errol has 2 children with his stepdaugher, who he met when she was 4 when he married her mum....bit weird. Elon's amazing and thankfully Trump won and Elon will be a big influence and at least Errol praises all his children, not just Elon, not a great dad though by all accounts

Did you hear that hesitation before confirming he drives an EV? Yes he will have one but what else does he drive? Up in the woods for axample?
As for you will never go back from an EV to an ICE, what crap. There is a huge move back. Would not surprice me if Musk ditches Tesla.

Emerald mine blood money and illegal immigrant status for years. That’s musk for you.

[mikeybullock]

[karin]

[Michael-hbip]

Elon doesn't care about the world or his father Elon cares about his own goals to to do
