I'm not a Republican, as I say after voting for Trump for the 5th time in 2032.

Lost on me in this thread is any reasonable support or rationale from Republicans for the US government taking on public investing like its a socialist country. Especially when there is not a pile of wealth waiting to be invested since we are a debtor nation.

Its not an 'investment,' its basically what sports teams do. They will just buy TikTok or whatever and turn it over to a private entity to run it and profit from it, just like they do with sports stadiums and such. I'm afraid I have to give credit to rick for saying "stop calling it socialism" - this is just run of the mill American corruption. Just like with sports franchise potentially leaving if they dont get what they want they can be "you like your Tik Tok right, and you dont want it to go away do you?" Billionaires looting the public isnt socialism!

Definitely more of an Arab Gulf State move, IMO, than Socialist. Typical MAGA hypocrisy.

I don’t consider Trump to be my boy, or trustworthy and brilliant. But he is better than Hillary and Biden any day of the week. Just because I take exception to the ridiculous things he is accused of by democrats and media doesn’t mean that I love him. Just because I take exception to the ridiculous double standard of the media, does r mean that I love him. Just because I take exception to the way democrats stretched, pushed, ripped,and contorted laws as much as possible to charge him with crimes, doesn’t mean that I love him. Just because his opposition tried to kill him, doesn’t mean that I love him. It does however mean that he is better than any Democrat except possibly Shapiro, and I would wait until his second term as governor of Pennsylvania to make that call.

Now, to answer your question, no I wouldn’t trust a single one of them to manage my money. Not one.

If your prior postings didn’t already, this post confirmed it. You definitely love him.
