Trump..... (The Sophistry Thread)

Minlak said:
Ummm sooo it appears Donald Trump is going to appear on the Joe Rogan podcast - even though Joe has on several occasions not accepted the opportunity to interview him before as he has said he is not a Trump Supporter

Harris is supposedly considering it as well. Rogan has always said he’d only interview candidates if he can do both sides.

I can’t imagine anything meaningful coming from an interview with either given his style.

Worst possible outcome, really. Both sides will have a reason to fight over the outcome and Putin will be on the sidelines placing bets each way.

Also sucks for me as my flights leave on 19 Dec, booked rooms in Washington for 29 Dec to 2 Jan.

Lots of people seem to be expecting trump to win and are avoiding making themselves targets for the revenge tour that follows. Not ideal.

The corporations may not care who wins, especially if environmental protections were watered down, and the business environment were more favourable such that the corps could more or less do their own thing. Why would the corporations be worse off under an orange shitstain win?
 
Bezos, like elmo, has lots of space contracts tied up with the government. Amazon also has an antitrust filing currently being investigated by the DOJ that could go away if Trump is elected..........

Because anyone who opposes him will be in some way retaliated against.

Yeah, I'm only speculating, but that's what I think it is. Many people are concerned that under a second and vengeful second Trump presidency that many laws and conventions are going to be steamrolled and the only real protection will be fealty.

Standard autocratic and dictatorial stuff.

I got about 10 minutes in so far and had to stop. I feel I probably need to watch more, but it’s going to have to be over several sessions I think.

The comments… Fuck me. Virtually all positive. I’m really starting to think he will win this again.
