America’s business ‘A-team’ is going to reform government spending under a second Trump administration, a top entrepreneur has claimed. 

As well as well-known Trump ally Elon Musk, business tycoons linked to some of the US’s biggest companies including PayPal, new AI darling Palantir and Microsoft will help out.

Joe Lonsdale compared a potential influx of entrepreneurs into White House advisory positions to a similar move which happened after WW2. That lead to America becoming a superpower. 

The founding partner of venture capital firm 8VC and co-founder of controversial data mining company Palantir, said: ‘We’re seeing a lot of top talent going in to reform government.’  

‘There’s a huge amount to cut, there’s a huge amount to fix,’ Lonsdale, who endorsed Donald Trump in the presidential election, said on CNBC.
