honestly surprised more traders aren't participating in this

Trump appointed him a cabinet position as co-head of D.O.G.E.

@BrendanMooney its not even clear if doge is a government department or not

@strutheo Yes it is. Government departments have to be created by an act of Congress. It could become a government department, but as of now it has been described as a blue ribbon commission, and it's definitely not currently a government department.

@njmkw Trump's own announcement specifically refers to it as "outside of government". Trump could change his mind, or give Vivek a different post, or etc, but there's no real ambiguity that currently DOGE would be a government department. it's entirely outside.

@strutheo please give your judgment on whether head of D.O.G.E. is a government position

@PeterNjeim I have no clue yet tbh lol waiting til learn more

Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)

I am pleased to announce that the Great Elon Musk, working in conjunction with American Patriot Vivek Ramaswamy, will lead the Department of Government Efficiency ('DOGE")….

@Blomfilter Trump explicitly says that this is "from outside the government". As stated, I don't see why this would count as a "government position".

@Ziddletwix

What if he wins governor of Ohio?

@aashiq wont count unless trump gives to him

"Or otherwise" is problematic to me.

What if he turns it down?

Will this resolve N/A or NO if Trump loses?
