Elon Musk, owner of X, is proving once again that he has a sense of humor, even as he has a potential presidential adviser role in the works.
Former President Donald Trump had an interview with Reuters on Monday, where he revealed that he was open to the idea of giving Musk a post in his White House, should he be re-elected in November.
“He's a very smart guy. He certainly would, if he did, he certainly would. He's a brilliant guy,” Trump remarked.
This prompted a quick and funny response from Musk.
“I'm ready to serve,” he tweeted, along with an AI-generated photo of himself behind a podium emblazoned with the words “Department of Government Efficiency,” or “DOGE” for short.

This is a reference to a joke cryptocurrency called “Dogecoin” that Musk has aggressively promoted in the past.
X users rated the potential Trump/Musk alliance:

By buying Twitter, Elon saved free speech.
By supporting Trump, Elon is helping to SAVE AMERICA!
Thank you, Elon, for giving us back free speech.
X is better than Twitter ever!

Can you imagine how much better running this country would be… if it was one man's job to fire all the rulers who were useless or who hurt life in general?
And make it a reality show please…it would be nice to see some encouraging news for once.
