The elected president Donald Trump is in Palm Beach, Florida, completing the elections for his future cabinet, with fierce lobbying for key positions, both privately and publicly. Trump's main ally, Elon Musk, has called for greater public participation in decision-making, especially in the selection of the head of the Department of the Treasury.

Musk, appointed by Trump to co-chair a commission dedicated to improving the efficiency of public spending, expressed on social media his interest in receiving opinions on possible candidates for the mentioned position. Musk questioned cryptocurrencies and highlighted the need for innovative change in financial management.

Meanwhile, Trump hosted House Speaker Mike Johnson at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, and is expected to continue making significant appointments in his administration. Trump plans to attend a sporting event in New York over the weekend, following his activity pattern since his electoral victory and his stay at Mar-a-Lago.

Over the years, Trump has maintained a close relationship with Dana White, president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), who has actively participated in the Republican political arena and supports Trump in his decisions. As Trump prepares to appoint leaders for the Departments of Education, Labor, and Treasury, different proposals and alliances are taking shape before him.

The billionaire Musk has expressed his preference for an innovative and change-oriented approach in future appointments, suggesting that a more conventional election might not be the most suitable at a crucial moment for the United States. Trump, surrounded by public figures and celebrities, continues to move forward with his selections and preparations for his upcoming presidential term.
