U.S. President-elect, Donald Trump
By Greg Jerry
Elon Musk, the world’s richest person, will be among several billionaires attending Donald Trump’s second presidential inauguration.
Tesla CEO Musk was instrumental in Trump’s reelection with his contribution of over a quarter of a billion dollars to Trump’s campaign coffers, according to Forbes.
Musk is set to head Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency, along with Vivek Ramaswamy, the biotech entrepreneur.
Reports say that Musk is slated to be seated at the inauguration with fellow billionaires Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
While it is not customary to invite foreign leaders, Trump has invited several.
Argentinian President Javier Milei is expected to attend, according to Bloomberg.
Milei was the first foreign leader to meet with Trump after he won November’s election.
Trump has also invited Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is sending an envoy.
Far-right Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni also has received an invitation, but she has said she is not sure her schedule will allow her to attend.
