This piece of news is particularly interesting because Musk was thoroughly vocal regarding his criticism of Trump. “He doesn't seem to have the sort of character that reflects well on the United States,” he had told CNBC earlier this year. Even Kalanick has said this to a young college audience- “Oh my god, Donald Trump’s gonna win. I’m going to move to China if Donald Trump wins.”

Trump had announced earlier that other members of the strategy group shall include JP Morgan chief executive Jamie Dimon, Disney chief executive Bob Iger and Ginny Rometty, the chief executive of IBM.
