I’d guess less than 5% chance for each major party to get discredited, maybe 50% chance that after that a high-tech billionaire decides it’s a good time to try to shape politics, maybe a 2% chance that s/he chooses Zoltan, and no more than a 20% chance that Zoltan wins after all that happens. I make that about a 0.0005% chance, being quite generous.
So, yeah, “remotely theoretically possible” is about as far as it goes.
Billionaires attempt to shape politics right now and I don’t see why would they stop. I think that the 50% chance is actually a 100% chance. However the probability of choosing specifically Zoltan I would estimate as considerably less than 2%.

If both parties become discredited I say at least 80% chance that more than one high-tech billionaire will try to shape politics, but otherwise a good estimate.
