From The Hill: David Sacks, President Trump’s artificial intelligence (AI) and crypto czar, urged tech billionaire and friend Elon Musk to reconsider his recent third-party push, arguing his political goals could be achieved through the Republican Party.
Sacks, a Silicon Valley venture capitalist, also said that he hopes Musk repairs his relationship with Trump, as the two had a public falling out over the president’s “big, beautiful bill” that ended up being signed into law on July 4.
“Look, I work for the president, and Elon is a good friend, and I hope that one day there will be a reconciliation. I do believe that Elon’s objectives politically can be achieved and can best be achieved through the Republican Party and I hope to convince him of that one day, and I hope that there’ll be a reconciliation, because I think Elon, and the President, there were once very good friends and I hope they will be soon again,” Sacks, a Silicon Valley venture capitalist, said during his Tuesday appearance on CNBC’ “Money Movers.”
Musk, who spent nearly $300 million to help get Trump elected during the 2024 presidential election, announced the “America Party” earlier this month, a third-party group that Musk hopes could rival the Republican and Democratic Parties.
