Donald Trump

Thiel and the cryptobros... they seem completely untouchable at the moment, the new power in US politics.  I don't think they get taken down until political power asserts itself over financial power once again.

I allow myself to daydream sometimes about how fucking mint it's gonna be the day Trump dies. I genuinely feel like I should have a special bottle of booze set aside for it. 


President Vance could be even worse

Are Vance and the Broligarchs on the same page? Vance is a theological fascist whereas with Musk etc it's all about money and power. But then there's Thiel behind Vance. Fuck knows. What's the ultimate agenda here?

Said this last week. The worse things get the more I think it’s right precisely because of the various factions being allowed to do WTF they like whilst Cheeto chops plays golf

I think Vance is 100% a cryptobro asset. He worked for Thiel for several years being groomed into what he is and was then sponsored to the tune of $15m dollars by Thiel once again to win his seat in the senate, coming from absolutely nowhere to do so. Trump took him as VP as part of a deal with the cryptobros sponsor his campaign.

 

What Vance otherwise believes changes to fit his needs - it's not long ago he was calling Trump a nazi. He is there only to advance Thiel's agenda, I'm sure of it.

Trump talking openly about running again in 2028. Some Democrat type has politely suggested he might want to stop talking abut it unless he wants to get absolutely embarrassed by Obama coming back to run against him. 

 

I'm not sure Obama would be up for it, or whether Trump will still be alive/vaguely functional by then anyway.

The UK needs to retaliate. I don't know whether it will have any impact, but the more we let the prick do it to us without any response, the weaker we look.

 

Fuck the US off entirely, retaliate to his tariffs, sort a trade deal with Europe and forget about getting a trade deal from Trump, cos it isn't going to happen.

Meanwhile, the Democrats may actually have had a penny drop moment and are now making winning over boys and men a priority.

 

The problem is that I suspect that they're not going to do that properly, and instead of supporting the crafting of positive versions of masculinity and turning people's frustrations onto wealth inequality, they're likely just going to lecture them about how not to be incels.
