Trump names Elon Musk, Uber CEO to advisory team
 

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk will join an advisory team for President-elect Donald Trump, Trump?s transition office announced Wednesday.

Uber CEO Travis Kalanick and Pepsi CEO Indra Nooyi will also join the President?s Strategic and Policy Forum.

The transition team's announcement comes in advance of Trump?s Wednesday meeting with top tech leaders, including Musk, at Trump Tower.

Other key tech players expected to be at the meeting include Facebook?s Sheryl Sandberg; Eric Schmidt and Larry Page of Alphabet, Google's parent company; and Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon who also owns The Washington Post. A representative from Uber will not be in attendance.

?I look forward to engaging with our incoming President and this group on issues that affect our riders, drivers and the 450+ cities where we operate,? Kalanick said in a statement.

For a minute there my hatred for Trump thawed - It didn't last long though...

WeHatePorn, a British guy in Britain, posting pro American president-elect Trump posts for months, and conspiracies - what's so they have in common?

Us British are always here to help when you need us

How does posting fake news, conspiracy theories and Trump propaganda help Americans?

It doesn't, that's why I post here to counter it; GFY is the front line of the War of Information

Prince would wet his pants! :1orglaugh

In other words you are a Putin Pet masquerading as a Brit.. You and the dutch boy are identical. You both just post pro Trump anti US propaganda and conspiracy theories.. I thought you guys had free educations and mental health care over there..

What really went down ...

'Monsters only'

Yeah and "You’ll call my people, you’ll call me, it doesn’t make any difference. We have no formal chain of command around here,” Trump said.

Nice to know the President of the United States wont have a formal chain of command and doesn't take daily intelligence briefings. Transport me back to reality please.

Surrounding himself with the best and the brightest is a great idea. . . if he will listen to them and take their advice is another thing all together.

Emperor's ideas are top notch :thumbsup

If True, I would want to see all of the advice that Elon Musk would give to Trump, and see how much Trump understands it and actually follows through.

"use the spoon. no! the SPOON! hey, don't throw it awa... God dammit!..." :1orglaugh

I would pay money to see bill gates'es face when trump asks him how to control the internet :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

As you hate Trump I despise Elon Musk and I'm not too keen on any the neo-liberalism dichotomies coming out of silicon valley. In my books he just played his card and showed that he's not going to be any different than Hillary.

Which supports my old 1960's mentality of just never voting. Democracy is a scam and no amount of science or "innovation" can ever create progress.

Good -- some people should not vote

i like 2 actually follow through :2 cents:

this topic will never ending :D
