I hope folk know I just share my views and opinions and I may be wrong...we are imperfect people...but I like to share, even things I do not agree with, to drive thought and debate and us to learn from others.

POTUS approval is the lowest in decades and he has to take a look...something is not working, messaging etc.

Dr. Paul Alexander's avatar

Federalist 78 tells us it clearly...over to you now SCOTUS...where POTUS et al. breaches, you must school them back into line, but when in line, you have to uphold the power of the executive...

but we thread the needle recognizing one may have POWER to do something....but not AUTHROITY to do something...think about it that way.

Politics is a cutthroat game. These people play for keeps. Trump has been an oligarch his whole life. He's paid both sides before he entered politics himself.

The things that make him look bad are when he props up his oligarch friends. He gives them a platform that they would struggle to get on their own.

Can't give Ellison and Altman this kind of power to pursue mRNA cancer vaccines developed by AI. Can't cozy up with Peter Thiel in the contracts he's using with Palantir and a possible Dept. Of Treasury payment system called ramp.

His reluctance to refute the vaccine problem doesn't shine well either.

From the outside looking in we may be looking at a Technocratic takeover which will not bode well for anyone.

Technocratic Takeover is the concern people but they are being distracted into other rabit holes sadly

technocratic takeover, I love the term, quite 100%

More than two (IMO). But that's not the key question here.

The critical question here is, WHY DOESN'T TRUMP TAKE THEM OUT? (or at least declare war on them).

As I recently wrote, Trump knows their names, their crimes, their M.O., and their location. Trump also has all the resources, and then some, to get the job done. So, **WHY DOESN'T HE?**

One answer explains **ALL** of it. That answer is that Trump is either one of them, or works with them, assists them, which is why he has NEVER, NOT ONCE done anything against them.

Adopt that answer and watch as *EVERYTHING* adds up, is explained, and magically makes sense.

Mysteriously (to me), very VERY few people want to even **consider** that answer as a possibility.

You know what that reminds me of? Remember about being labeled a "conspiracy nut job" for referring to the "covid pandemic" and the covid jabs as a mega-crime? Do you remember how tens of millions of people were in denial, in spite of overwhelming evidence? I remember it well!

Now, we have a similar situation regarding Trump. OVERWHELMING evidence all points in one direction -- BUT DON'T YOU DARE SUGGEST THAT TRUMP IS "ONE OF THEM"!!! If you do, "conspiracy nut job" is the nicest name you can expect to be called.

I've been voicing that (my) theory since April 2017, and it gathers more steam as time rolls by.

I agree, Trump faces more than 2 Oligarchies...

Scott's avatar

He definitely was one of them there’s no denying that but them making a mockery of him and multiple attempted assassinations would change most people’s minds. Most of all they insult his whole family and you can’t let that go as a man. I agree there’s more than two Oligarchies with the entrenched Congress members and media being the others. He can’t just go around taking them out because if you let the left back into power, imagine what they would do.

Jorge Fernandez's avatar

"... mockery of him" --- all for optics. "... assassination attempts" --- staged; not credible.

Lastly, they *WILL* get back in power - that much is 100% guaranteed! How can that be prevented? The answer, to me, is quite simple. Can't you see it?

Jorge Fernandez's avatar

And when they do, there will be hell to pay.

So I ask again, what is the only guaranteed, sure-fire way to prevent that?

It's a simple question, with a simple answer. YET, TRUMP WILL NOT DO IT!!

Scott's avatar

Tell that to the family who lost a father it was staged

Jorge Fernandez's avatar

You think these monsters give a rat's tail about *collateral damage*? WAKE UP!!!

Scott's avatar

Never said they did but that fact was to your it’s all staged observation

Agree with all but Musk. Doctor, you are good psychologist. Don’t you see that Musk is different from the rest of them? He started fight for Trump way before Trump became popular and it harmed his reputation. Kamala was leading in all polls at that time. He, I’m 💯 sure was the decisive factor in Trump’s victory. The rest of them such as Bezos, Zuckerberg etc are disgusting opportunists who jumped on board when felt the profits. The split in Trumps camp where you are his main supporter is good for enemies. They are trying to destroy loyal to Trump people and Musk especially. Musk revealed large scale of unheard corruption and fraud on the highest level which most knew is happening but never in the history anyone took the courage to nail it. No wonder these very people are mad with Musk and use all disposable tools to ruin him politically, financially and physically.

Musk was taking data to feed his ai system and has serious red flags

Your analysis generally sounds valid to me. I can't help but add that the ultra rich do not live in the same world as the rest of us (figuratively speaking). Years ago, a scholar friend who had lived in Taiwan & Japan and traveled a good deal pointed out that even though we may visit many countries and have friends of various nationalities, we almost invariably end up associating with people of more or less the same economic class as we have been raised in. So these "oligarchs" or nouveau riche oligarch wannabe brainy but amoral (even immoral) Silicon Valley etc people really have zero empathy or compassion for humanity in general.

I agree that Elon Musk seems different from the garden variety quasi- (or authentically) criminal ultra-rich "player"--sometimes acting out of what appears to be genuine altruism (serving the general welfare rather than completely self-absorbed & self-righteous), but sometimes doing things that are either sudden 180 degree reversals or engaging in "3D chess" to further self-interest.

Well, nobody except a saint is perfect, but the problem with that in the case of the ultra-rich is the monetary clout behind their whims of power, which can have truly disastrous, long-lasting, and potentially unrecoverable effects -- the machinations of Bill Gates immediately come to mind, but any person or group with clout and lack of accountability can have that effect. My point is, that the ultra-rich, who often/always seem to be afforded a free pass to do as they please, must be forced to hold themselves to a higher degree of moral responsibility than others for their impactful decisions & actions, in other words, act wisely, not cleverly.

A great man once said that if you want to be selfish, you should be "smart-selfish". Normal selfish means you try to grab as much as you can while all around you becomes poorer and poorer, life becomes more miserable, cities become more dangerous, and you have to live in a walled community in a desperate country. If you are smart-selfish, you contribute to the welfare of the community, improve infrastructure, care for the needy & ill, and the entire environment is improved with the result that you can live freely in a safe and pleasant environment with happy neighbors.

It's long been believed the CIA was/is the power behind the tech billionaires, making their proximity to Trump particularly worrisome.

Dr. Paul Alexander's avatar

very worrisome...I dont see anything good from it

Frank's avatar

Very excellent observation. It spans the globe and is called something different in each country but they are all linked. Dig deeper.

People usually misunderstand the functionality of a President;

"He who Presides": at a meeting where claims, appeals, resources, and priorities are discussed with a view to making decisions, removing todo items that are done, and moving forward.

To consider that a President is elected in order to INITIATE processes is the most grave misunderstanding.

The second misunderstanding, one committed by our own (temporarily suspended from Office) Pedro Castillo as well as Donald Trump, Emmanuel Macron, and quite a few others, is that their Steering Committee is sourced from what we call the Swamp, Oligarchy, or other term of misdirection. The Swamp is the true power, acting on behalf of The Man Behind The Curtain.

You can consider the possibility that England is in the last years of its independent, sovereign, existence as a power vested in the virally self-renewing superdynasty created by King William the First, the Conqueror. His plan, removing all land ownership to his own hands (per the Domesday Survey) and installing as a buffer zone the political layer of Barons, formed of England a long-term dictatorship.

England and the other Five Eyes nations, and much of Western Europe, still maintain this system.

You can note that it has renewed itself several times over the course of the millennium, not least by a form of window-dressing that changed procedures, operators, etc., while leaving the King or Queen to direct operations via his Royal Court, one which now possesses ten centuries of conscious knowledge of "people management".

Is it any surprise that, even while approaching national and dynastic bankruptcy, England is still, iron fist in velvet glove, attempting to murder Russia?

Please do not be distracted by "hearing voices {from the television}".

Elon helped Trump get ejected and severely harmed his business by trying to cut waste and corruption in government. I think there are many disgruntled people who resent not being chosen by Trump to join his administration and are unfairly attacking those who he chose.
