Elon Musk called GOP presidential contender Vivek Ramaswamy “a very promising candidate” earlier this month. On Friday, Ramaswamy floated Musk as a potential White House adviser—should he beat the odds and win the election, that is.
Of course, Ramaswamy, a 38-year-old tech entrepreneur, remains a long-shot contender, but on Wednesday he overshadowed Florida governor Ron DeSantis and other rivals at the GOP’s opening presidential primary debate. Not present on the stage was former president Donald Trump, who skipped the debate, citing his lead in polls.
