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's more the fact that we're getting really close to the end now and someone has to get left holding the bag. The next president is probably going to face a depression worse than the Great Depression, see China annex Taiwan, WWII in Europe kick off, and social collapse in the US. We already know the elites want these things to happen. Part of Cloward Piven was always to make things as bad as possible and trigger a collapse so they can preside over the reset. What better president than Trump to let take the brunt of the blame when all the shoes drop at the same time, then swoop back in afterwards promising utopia in the rebuilding.
I don't see either of these happening. If China can't manage an amphibious assault now with their puppet keeping America in check, it's only going to get harder with Trump in charge. And Europe will calm down once the Democrats' regime change fantasy is taken off the table again.
Yeah, the only way I could see China taking Taiwan is through diplomatic means. Even if China wasn't a paper tiger, Taiwan is only worth taking with their industry intact.
Taiwan has artillery that can range to the Chinese coast and hit a major (aren't they all in China?) city. No assault is going to be without Chinese losses.
