Billionaire Elon Musk told his former colleagues that US Vice President JD Vance would become the next leader of the country.
The assessment was made during an appearance by Elon Musk at a secret meeting with his new federal spending cutting committee on November 22.
Billionaire Elon Musk predicts that the US is entering a "great 12-year period" including the second term of US President Donald Trump, followed by 2 consecutive terms of Mr. JD Vance.
Although Musk said he has stepped one step back from politics, his large influence in political spending shows that if Mr. Vance wins the 2028 election and Mr. Musk chooses to participate, this billionaire will become a significant support.
The meeting, reportedly attended by about 150 people, with current and former members of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), gathered inside a Musk-owned building near SpaceX and Boring Co facilities. in Bastrop, Texas.
The contestants' phones were sealed in the security bag until the event ended and returned when they were completely gone.
However, the billionaire Musk did not appear in person because he said that information about the meeting had been leaked and was concerned about the risk of being assassinated. According to billionaire Musk, he is among the top assassination targets in the US, just behind Trump and Vance.
Mr. Musk thanked the DOGE team for their sacrifices during their time working in Washington - from leaving their higher-paying jobs, being under political pressure to receiving assassination threats.
Many of Musk's senior colleagues who have joined the DOGE group, such as Steve Davis and Anthony Armstrong, were also present.
In a recent interview with businessman Nikil Kamath, Mr. Musk said: "I realized that every time I get involved in politics, things often end badly."
However, it was this meeting that was created to reconnect those who had supported his political ambitions in Washington. And he is clearly looking ahead to 2032.
