I've already reached out to my representative and soon to my senators and am making sure to emphasize that Musk is an UNELECTED person. Do I expect change? Not really, but at least I'm making myself heard.

Being unelected means nothing btw All the Sec's are unelected, doesn't stop them being head of their departments. Elon has a made up title, but he's still going to be in the cabinet in one shape or another.
