Elon Musk's endorsement of Howard Lutnick for Treasury secretary has raised concerns among Trump advisers about his growing influence and potential overstepping, as they view him as acting like a 'co-president.'
Musk's public support for Lutnick over more traditional picks like Scott Bessent, who has a skeptical attitude towards cryptocurrencies, was unexpected and reflects a desire for significant change.
Despite some adviser concerns, no evidence suggests a rift between Musk and Trump, who continues to involve Musk in his plans and activities, including spending time at Mar-a-Lago.
Musk's involvement in Trump's campaign and his close relationship indicate that his influence is not waning; rather, he's likely to have an ongoing role in Treasury discussions.
