  • President-elect Donald Trump has a net worth of $5.7 billion, as of Dec. 1, 2024, and he has chosen a slew of fellow billionaires to serve in his second administration.

The article from MSN discusses the potential composition of Donald Trump's administration should he win the 2024 presidential election, focusing on the influence of billionaires. It highlights that Trump has been considering several wealthy individuals for key positions. Notably, Elon Musk has been mentioned as a potential advisor, particularly on economic and border security issues. Other names floated include Bill Ackman, who has expressed interest in a role like Treasury Secretary, and John Paulson, who might be considered for a significant economic position due to his past support for Trump. The article also mentions that Trump's strategy seems to involve surrounding himself with business tycoons to leverage their expertise and financial resources, potentially to enact policies that favor deregulation and tax cuts for the wealthy. This approach reflects Trump's previous administration's style, where business leaders were often tapped for government roles, raising concerns about conflicts of interest and the influence of wealth in policy-making.
