Elon Musk has reportedly been spending extensive time with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago since the election, even joining Trump on calls with world leaders. While Musk is not expected to take an official role, he reportedly influences staffing preferences in the President-elect’s team, raising eyebrows among Trump’s insiders. Tech journalist Kara Swisher added that Musk’s omnipresence has unsettled some in Trump’s inner circle, comparing him to the guest who wouldn't leave.
