Some very odd things now going on with Trump/Musk and crypto, tibbers. Watch this space. XRP and SOL.

[Quantum Boy]

(Note: it's 100% coming from Musk, but Trump is the public face. He's your crypto walk-on girl, fellas).

[Quantum Boy]

If you're completely clueless about what crypto is or means, you may remember our old pal Mr Sunak harping on about CBDC's. This is that.

More humiliating than Nigel Garbage having a meeting with President Musk and bragging about it only for Musk to call him “not good enough”?

i don't expect that Starmer gives a damn. If Trump ignores him for the duration of his office, i think he will be perfectly happy

I guess you could think that but it would be such a wild take

This.

I expect they’re dreading the next four years.

Absolutely.
Trump will have come and gone again at least 6 months before Starmer even needs to think of another election by August 2029.
Plus he'll be a virtual lame duck President in around 3 and a half years anyhow.
Also going for good this time thankfully.

However, having said that.
I cannot stand Trump, I think he's a paranoid narcissistic egomaniac.

HOWEVER, he will likely want to leave some lasting positives from his terms as President.
So I'm hoping for peace from him.
I do think his being unpredictable at being unpredictable is a weird kind of asset.

If he can and does try to bring about some peace across the World then that will be commendable and so I hope he will work for that.
Which if he does I'll admire that.

I admire your optimism Joey - I don't have much hope for what's coming after Trump, it will almost certainly be worse. The US as we know it is done.

What unmitigated tosh to pretend you are in the know

There is no "in the know" they're openly selling American politics to multi-billionaires. They're not hiding it. The US was founded on the idea of capitalism and the free-market, that much is true, but what's going on now with the tech giants is not that. This is a fundamental shift in US politics, it's not reversible. I'm not pretending to have any "secret knowledge" - it's simply what is factually happening... what I can never figure out LT is if you're deliberately pretending not to see it, or genuinely completely void of political and economic literacy.

Oh it's not really optimism QB.
It's more a forlorn hope.

I think you make a good point as to the problems he may well leave in the USA after this thankfully FINAL period at least of HIM on the World stage.

The way it’s being exaggerated I know that you know it’s going to be an excuse for the numbers that bother to show up.

LT playing the meteorologist card and over exaggerating-5

My 60yr old dad literally worked in -5 the other night

By this point, no-one seriously believes he's going to be the "Next Hitler."

Doesn't mean they like him, or are optimistic about his Presidency.
