Riding the Lightning: How Trump’s Inner Circle of Billionaires Could Redefine the World

Here’s a table of 50 notable business leaders, entrepreneurs, sports figures, and other influential attendees from various countries at Trump’s inauguration. This excludes politicians and focuses on individuals with notable business or cultural influence.

This list combines business leaders from around the globe, focusing on those likely to engage with and benefit from Trump’s administration. (Let me know if you’d like deeper insights into any specific attendees)

High-Level Observations

Tech Powerhouses Lead the Charge: - With Musk, Bezos, Pichai, and Zuckerberg present, it’s clear the tech titans are positioning themselves for government-backed dominance.

• Expect accelerated government support for AI, space exploration, autonomous systems, and data monetization, even if it comes at the cost of privacy or regulation.
• Bold Prediction: We’ll see federally funded AI experiments in public systems, like AI-driven policing or even automated political decision-making tools.

Finance and Hedge Fund Heavyweights: People like Ken Griffin, Stephen Schwarzman, and Jamie Dimon signal a resurgence of Wall Street dominance in policymaking.

• Deregulation of financial markets and massive tax breaks are likely.
• Bold Prediction: The financial sector will lobby for the largest mergers in history (think JPMorgan swallowing Goldman Sachs) under the guise of “market stability.”

Big Energy and Resource Grab:

• ExxonMobil, Koch Industries, and global players like Gina Rinehart and Andrew Forrest indicate a push for relaxed environmental regulations, fossil fuel expansion, and greenwashing.
• Bold Prediction: Trump will push for a North American-Australian "energy axis," creating new trade routes that make Australia a key partner in resource supply for U.S. industries, ignoring climate concerns entirely.

Media Titans at the Table:

• Rupert Murdoch and digital entrepreneurs like Daniel Ek signal media consolidation, deregulation, and a blurring of lines between politics and propaganda.
• Bold Prediction: Trump allies with a private media conglomerate to create a full-fledged “state-friendly” news network, bypassing traditional media entirely.

Global Oligarchs Hedging Their Bets:

• Names like Mukesh Ambani, Lakshmi Mittal, and Richard Branson show a clear interest in leveraging U.S. market access and deregulated trade to expand their global empires.
• Bold Prediction: Foreign entities will be allowed to buy critical American infrastructure, like railways or tech networks, under “strategic partnership” agreements.

Groups of Attendees

1. Tech & Innovation
2. Finance & Real Estate
3. Energy & Resources
4. Media & Cultural Influencers
5. International Power Players

What This List Reveals

• Favoritism and Patronage: This administration will likely see an unprecedented level of favoritism toward Trump’s personal and business allies.
• Power Consolidation: The presence of leaders from dominant industries signals a future where monopolies grow unchecked, with legislation actively supporting this trend.
• Global Exploitation: The inclusion of international magnates highlights how foreign interests are poised to benefit from Trump’s America-first policies, provided they align themselves with his goals.
• Economic Instability: Financial deregulation could lead to short-term growth but long-term instability, with markets favoring a small elite at the expense of broader equity.

The stage is set for a world of mega-mergers, privatized public resources, and unprecedented consolidation of wealth and power in the hands of a few. Bold? Absolutely. Likely? Maybe. Frightening? Quite possibly

Outrageous But Plausible Scenarios

2. The Privatization of Society:

Sobering Takeaways

This list isn’t just a catalog of wealth—it’s a mirror to global systemic issues. The obscene level of wealth concentration among these individuals signals a broken system where:

• Governments become puppets to billionaires.
• Public goods are treated as private commodities.
• Economic growth serves the elite at the expense of everyone else.

The most terrifying part? Many of these billionaires are actively shaping the rules of the game. From lobbying for favorable regulations to acquiring media companies, their wealth gives them an unprecedented level of influence over the future of society.

The question isn’t just how much wealth is too much. It’s: How do we stop billionaires from becoming modern-day kings?
