US Congressman Thomas Massie took time out to speak to BizNews during a brief visit to South Africa. He describes billionaire Elon Musk as his favourite South African. “I do believe that he changed the course of history by buying Twitter, which is now renamed X, and allowing conservatives to have a voice that could go around the mainstream media in the United States.” Massie gives an update on his “rocky relationship” with President-elect Donald Trump and shares details of their recent chats. Furthermore, he discusses the Foreign Relations Committee’s negative view of South Africa. And he outlines the key objectives of the Trump Administration, warning, however: “I think he's got six months to show the American public that he's going to act on the mandate that he's received.” Meanwhile, in South Africa, Massie is talking to some of leading local thought leaders - and "trying to spread and exchange views on liberty and particularly libertarianism”.
