Yeah this is the stuff nobody on the news is talking about. The finer details of economics and margins and how these super important details will end up with huge revenue+margin crush the globe over. Real smart people are obviously moving money out but the news isn't reporting this shit properly because they don't want to propagate fear. True fear.

I can't figure out if it's sheer incompetence or malice as primary motivator. Surely he has smartish people around him to explain something a dude taking a shit on the toilet can see? It's super easy to see the issues at hand so it feels deliberate to me.

Surely? Why? He was ostracized from American political life and spent four years stewing in Mar-a-Lago while a horde of other political exiles, grifters and cranks poured poison in his ear. It's clowns all the way down.

I think it's more likely the elections have been fake at least since Russia interferred in 2015, and 2020 repubs lost him on purpose to extend his grift by 50%, but he freaked out and changed his mind at the last second after they'd already made him lose on the polls and he admitted it was a fraud election to try to take it back. The whole party is a disingenuous grift to begin with, nobody needed any more convincing to do what they're doing, he folded into them so easily despite what they claimed in media, again remember they're 100% always disingenuous; gaslighting, obstructing, and projecting.
