There is a discussion that Elon Musk should be made the Speaker of the US Parliament

The political influence of Elon Musk, the world's richest tech billionaire, who has reached around 5 billion US dollars due to the sudden increase in wealth in the last few months, has also increased. He played a significant role in returning Donald Trump to the White House powerfully in the US presidential election held in November.

Now the media has mentioned that the discussion of making him the speaker of the American lower house of Congress has started to circulate widely in the GOP circle. There is no provision in the US Constitution that a member of parliament must be a speaker in the lower house of the parliament .

Influential Republican lawmaker from Georgia, Marjorie Taylor Green, posted in response X that the position of Speaker of the House of Representatives would be ideal for Musk and that she is ready to consider it if something comes up.  He says it is appropriate.  Green, who has already tried to remove the current Speaker of the House, said in a poll about the appointment of Musk's speaker in X. About 52,000 have commented.

There have been mixed reactions to the proposal to make Musk the Speaker. Texas Republican Rep. Tony Gonzalez has said that Musk's voice is largely a reflection of the voice of the public. Critics have expressed concern that this move could create a conflict of interest between Musk's business interests and political role.

Musk's political influence is not limited to financial support and social media. Recently, he has been compared with George Soros, a powerful figure in the media and political campaign.

But his supporters say that Musk's vision is different and that he wants to work only by focusing on technological advancement and economic growth. Although the latest proposal is still a rumor, Musk's possibility of becoming the Speaker shows his sudden political power. Analysts say that after Trump's election, Musk, who is always present at his main political meetings and policy-making, and who seems to be busy, is not surprised by Trump's nomination as Speaker.

When the then President Barack Obama was elected in 2008, Musk, who publicly supported and donated to the Democrats, was a supporter of liberal economic and political policies for some time. After Trump was elected president in 2016, he began supporting Republican causes. After purchasing Twitter in 2022, Musk began openly promoting the views of Trump and hard-line Republicans like him.

In the first meeting of the newly elected American parliament, there is a provision that the speaker should be chosen. Trump's granddaughter Kai Trump has explained that Ilan is recognized as an 'uncle' in his family gatherings and atmosphere. Many people are interested in where his political journey will take after the inauguration of the newly elected president.
