Look, I don't really think the idea of "oh, Trump can't win, they aren't scared of him, he's a shill, he won't do anything" is clearly not the case here.
I really don't think Trump is going to do pretty much anything but get vengeance for shit like this. Really. Trump is not the type of guy who seems like he will just turn the other cheek.
You don't pull this shit unless they are deathly afraid of him getting back into power. They obviously hate him and are willing to at least break the law to stop him, but there has to be a reason. Trump could be easily bought off, but they didn't and they keep digging their own hole here.
I'm starting to think that when Trump wins in 2024, before he can fire 50,000 federal employees, we're going to look at DC basically evacuating with all of our money. I think it might turn into a ghost town.
He could have been at the start, I suspect, by now, however, I expect Trump's taking this as a personal attack - which it is - and will come out swinging.
The only reason I can think of for being this brazen is already knowing Trump simply will not be allowed to win.
I mean, I'm sure the FBI thinks that ... but I'm sure Clinton thought that in 2016, too.
Regards DC and your money ... look at what they're doing with the dollar. It's already in progress, mate.
I think Trump won in 16 because they failed to rig it enough and he completely shook their faith in the system they had so carefully constructed. It would certainly explain why they went absolutely nuts.
That makes sense. Polling for 16 was very bad. Anyone who is interested in politics should look up how polling actually works and how they fucked up the 16 election. If they're intentionally rigging for a close election, they are probably using those numbers that come out, and they were bogus that time.
Incidentally, numbers from the 20 election will be used to skew raw data for 24. So cheating back then will actually impact how polls look for 24. At least the official ones. Insiders may have access to raw data in order to apply their own formulae if they're looking for how much to cheat.
That's the other half of it. If the entire press weren't the toadies of the DP before his election, they sure as shit became that after they were proven to be 100% wrong in their unanimous cheerleading for Clinton and their dismissal of Trump's chances of winning.
These fucks were so sure of their king-making power they went apeshit after they were proven to be ineffectual.
Trump was the best thing ever to happen to our perception of the press by revealing how it sucks up to power. "Fake News" indeed.
Now nobody trusts them as far as anyone can throw that fatass bald guy from CNN.
I maintain that Trump could have been turned into Borris Johnson if he had stayed in. Honestly, "losing" the 2020 election may have done him better than winning it. He wouldn't have avoided a recession, Afghanistan would probably still have been a shit-show, Barr, Fauci, and Milley would all still be there getting in front of any attempt to change anything. Hell, Kushner would still be there.
All they would have had to do in 2016 was placate his ego like the Saudis did when he did his offical tour. If they had just been magnanimous in 2020, they'd probably have quite a cucked or undermined Trump. Now he's going to be coming back on a war-path.
I know, that's actually my point. I don't agree that this is "end of empire", but I do think that basically the Kleptocracy has kind of decided that this is probably the end-game in the US. They are draining the treasury like Uday Hussein did because I actually think they know this chaos and lack of leadership on their part means their loss may be inevitable, even if it's not by Trump's hand.
I'm gonna keep buying metals because I really don't think that there's going to be any real money in the American economy outside of it by 2024, but I think that if the Kleptocrats are all cleared out, we might actually make a swift recovery.
