United States President Donald Trump has told members of his cabinet and other close associates that his billionaire ally Elon Musk will soon step back from his government role.

It will be recalled that Trump has tasked the Tesla and SpaceX CEO with leading efforts to cut government funding and dismantle various US agencies as a special government employee.

According to Politico, both Trump and Musk decided in recent days that Musk will soon return to his businesses, but gave no specific date.


At the time of filing this report, representatives for the White House, the Musk-led task force and Musk have not made any comment on the development.

Trump and Musk have both recently indicated that Musk would move on but have not said when.

Trump, when asked if he wanted Musk to stay longer than his 130-day term, told reporters on Monday: “I think he’s amazing, but I also think he’s got a big company to run. At some point, he’s going to be going back. He wants to.”

DAILY POST reports that based on a 130-day term, Musk’s time as a special government employee could end as soon as May.

He told Fox News last week that he was confident he would finish most of the work to cut $1 trillion in federal spending.
