Its clearer & clearer that either the Tangerine Tyrant himself, or people in the room when decisions are made for/with him are playing the market(s) to their won advantage.... (this time both in the oil futures market & on the share market).

So if you were wondering who exactly the Tangerine Tyrant is governing for... its not the 'American people', it his inner circle - this looks like corruption of the highest order with little real interest is masking what's going on!

@ChrisMayLA6 We talk about tech bros reading dystopian fiction as instruction manuals, but we now have elites pulling plots from dystopian television shows.

People are always so surprised when an obvious NY property mafia gangster does illegal things...

@ChrisMayLA6 but the ‘murricans who vote for him don’t (or won’t ) get this because the furriners! Oh and because Elvis.
It’s like Farridge and his Reform Ltd investors ( not shareholders) they’ll believe they’re only worse off because the furriners.
@ChrisMayLA6 The worrying thing is that there is no way that he can allow free elections now. An incoming Democratic president will surely have ample evidence to send him and his gang to prison. The most likely likely outcome as I see it is that Vance and other gang members will convince him to retire on health grounds and then Vance will pardon him like Ford did for Nixon. (What I would like to see would be for an incoming Democratic president to use her powers to extradite him to stand trial in Tehran. But that would only happen in a just world.)

@ChrisMayLA6

With his roughly five years of remaining life expectancy, of course it is not for him.
He had $7Billion before his second enthronement.
