I don't know who Tucker is interviewing here, but in this 2:21 clip he says something that has been percolating in the back of my mind:
There has been an alignment, the last 3 days, that all point to the fact that Trump is in all but name the next President. Elon and Bill Ackerman very publicly declare unthroated support for Trump. Trump basically tells Biden to give JFK USSS protection, and Biden agrees. Am I crazy? Am I really seeing this?
I'm going to watch the entire interview tomorrow, when it posts, as this looks like an interesting conversation.
Even before these events, there was more and more evidence that the establishment actually wants Trump this time around. Not because he's "their guy," necessarily, but because the Musk/Thiel side of the elite have been gaining traction arguing that there has to be some appeasement to populism before ordinary people's resentment boils over.
I think it is important to clarify this. There are many establishments. The MIC types? Definitely don't want Trump or Vance. WEF types? Also no. The administrative state? No, DC will still vote 95% Biden. But as you said there seems to be a contingent of very wealthy guys who have decided Trump is the way to go.
