Of the countless chaotic, unethical, irresponsible, unconstitutional actions of the current administration there is room to find financial benefit.
It has been proven that the authoritarian actions have given way to massive profits to be made. His family has increased their wealth by over $2 Billion in the past 150 days due to the TACO tariff swings allowing the family’s Puts and Calls to the market. Also, the strategy of the tariff swings have given them a leg up in the cell phone market as his tariffs have created high taxes to both Samsung and Apple phones therein giving his family business a boost for the release of their own cell phone, T1, to the marketplace. Although, his “Made in America” mantra only goes so far as their recently released gold plated cell phone is made in China. It seems after you make the $400 purchase there is a two week waiting period to receive your phone…if you do get one. Time will tell. Call me.
Despite the campaign promises of stopping the war in Ukraine within 24 hours, and bringing an end to the war in Gaza, he has decided to go all out for the genocidal Nutandyahoo. By their calculated genocide of the Palesitinian people, his family will soon begin to build beach front condos in Gaza, just as he had stated on the campaign trail. So, I guess that some of his promises will come true. His now dwindling base of koolaid drinkers have begun to come to terms with his culmination of numerous failed promises and have found he is incapable of creating the deals he says he can. He has now added another unconsitutional action to the fold with the recent invasion of Iran. I guess he has forgotten to ask Congress for anything.
This bombing comes off of the decision he made, in 2018, to remove the United States from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly known as the Iran nuclear deal. When he made this decision he cited it as a flawed agreement that did not adequately prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Perhaps, what he really meant to let everyone know was that he was jealous that Obama had come up with that plan that was working, so he wanted to put an end to that. Despite having no evidence to his claims that the agreement was not working, his decision led to the re-imposition of sanctions on Iran, which significantly impacted its economy and escalated tensions in the region.
Now, he has decided that Iran needs new leadership. I don’t really think that is his decison to make. Although, this comes right in line with the policies of the United States as in 1953 our Republican led government did the same thing. At that time, the CIA held a covert operation in Iran to remove their democratically elected President to which they replace him with the murderous Shah. So, I don’t think Iran will be singing sweetly to America any time soon. This is simply another guarantee that we will have backpack bombers entering the United States for some time to come.
Then, the Republican leader Ronald Reagan had his own Iran-Contra issue. It’s common knowledge that as Reagan was running for President against Carter in 1979 he made backdoor dealings with the Iranian terrorists to withhold the release of the hostages until after the election to weaken Carter so Reagan could win the election. That action created the failure of Carter to negotiate for the release of the hostages therein tainting his re-election campaign. The Iran hostage crisis began on November 4, 1979, when 66 Americans, including diplomats and other civilian personnel, were taken hostage at the Embassy of the United States in Tehran, with 52 of them being held until January 20, 1981. Reagan took office the next day.
Sorry, I got a bit off track. Although, the bullshit filled, bone spurred, dimentia showing dictator grifter is giving some people financial benefits. His cabinet and staff have expressed excitement to be the beneficiaries of the inside scoop to his tariff and bombing decisions as reports have shown some of the stock and crypto buying or selling decisions before administrative actions are released to the public.
In the mean time, the public has already forgotten about the Epstein files; the 22 year old ex gardner who has been tasked to lead the administration’s counter terrorism; the illegal and unconstitutional takeover of our government from DOGE and now Palintir; his 34 convictions of fraud; the currently released news of his voter fraud in the 2024 election cycle; his wife’s grifting millions while promising to payout proceeds to non-profits that don’t exist; and on and on…
I don’t believe that the public will forget about the unconstitutional means that his gestapo has ripped thousands of people, many of whom are citizens and most of whom have NO criminal records, from the streets without any means of Habeus Corpus. I don’t believe the public will forget when he publicly stated that “Homegrowns are next”. I don’t believe that the public will forget the reason their grocery prices will soon skyrocket is due to the illegal ICE packs that collect brown skinners from the streets and ship them off to far away country never to pick another crop again therein leaving the country’s crops rotting on the vine. But, then, I believe the public will forget that the administration has fired all of the food inspectors. But, everything is fine. It’s all fine here. Don’t look behind the curtains…
Of all of this, I do believe his son in law and daughter, whom he has publicly stated that he would have an affair with if she weren’t his daughter, has benefitted the most. He was gifted $2 Billion dollars from the Saudi Arabia's Sovereign Wealth Fund, run by Prince Mohammed shortly after leaving his role as a senior advisor during the first term. This investment has raised ethical concerns due to Kushner's previous close ties with the Saudi government during his time in the White House.
You might recall Prince Mohammed, he is the guy who dismemberred the journalist, Jamal Khashoggi. He was killed by agents of the Saudi government at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey. Khashoggi was ambushed and strangled by a 15-member squad of Saudi operatives. His body was dismembered and disposed of. The consulate had been secretly bugged by the Turkish government and Khashoggi's final moments were captured in audio recordings, transcripts of which were subsequently made public.
But again, I digress. There was some bounce back to the crypto markets today after their dramatic collapse after yesterday’s illegal invasion of Iran.
Perhaps I am wrong about all of this and I’m missing something?
So PLTR is a buy. 😉 Well stated sir! 🤜🤛
Ok; a critique. But why? What was the point of that? C’mon! Is there some sort of actionable insight forthcoming or did you just need to get that off your chest? Would appreciate some logical follow on to assist in developing my own pragmatic world view. I don’t have time for rants in either partisan direction.
