As Twitchy reported Tuesday, Elon Musk said he "can't wait," if asked, to audit federal agencies and identify programs to cut if Donald Trump is elected. Trump was speaking to The Economic Club of New York Thursday morning and credited Musk with the idea of creating a government efficiency commission. Trump said Musk would be a great choice to head the effort if he can find the time.

"… and making recommendations for drastic reforms."

A complete financial and performance audit of the federal government? Yes, please!

A lot of people Tuesday mentioned that Musk had managed to cut 80 percent of Twitter's workforce and still keep the lights on.

The U.S. government is the country's largest employer.

Department of Government Efficiency!

Let's see if the Kamala Harris campaign rips off this idea. We wonder who they'd get to head their commission … is there a Democrat for smaller government?
