Elon Musk Once Called Him a “Snake”

Update: 2025-08-23 05:38 GMT

Now everyone’s attention is on him. Because U.S. President Donald Trump has recently appointed Sergio Gor as the American Ambassador to India. For some time now, Donald Trump has been adopting a tough stance towards India. In the early days after coming to power, he kept saying that Indian Prime Minister Modi was his very good friend, but later he showed aggression towards India on the issue of tariffs. At first, he said that a big deal between the two countries would be finalized. Initially, he imposed 25 percent… later saying that India was buying oil from Russia, he added another 25 percent, imposing a total of 50 percent tariffs on India. It is known that these additional tariffs are to come into effect from August 27. Now it looks like the Donald Trump government has no intention of backing down on these tariffs. At such a time, he appointed his very close and trusted associate Sergio Gor as the American Ambassador to India. 

                                                         Here’s another key point — just a few months ago, the world’s richest man and Tesla head Elon Musk described this same Sergio Gor as a snake. It is known that Elon Musk served for a few months in the Trump administration as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). At that time, there were allegations that Sergio Gor was the reason for the growing distance between Donald Trump and Elon Musk. This 38-year-old Sergio Gor is not only close to Donald Trump but also worked hard for his victory in the recent elections. Trump announced this appointment on his social media platform Truth, saying: “I have selected Sergio Gor as the Ambassador to India and Special Representative for South and Central Asian Affairs.” Though he does not appear much in the media, within party circles Sergio Gor is known as a powerful leader.

                                                 Sergio played an important role in bringing Trump’s supporters into the government, being instrumental in the appointment of nearly 4,000 people. He sidelined traditional diplomats to a large extent. He is appointing only those from his core team to key positions. Currently, Sergio Gor is serving as the Personnel Director in the White House. Trump revealed that Sergio is also the publisher of his best-selling books. Posting about the appointment, Trump said: “To implement my agenda and to elevate the country, I need a trustworthy person… Sergio will be a great ambassador. Congratulations to him.”
