My rough thoughts here
1. Pewtin is broke. He needs his puppet, T, to pay back Russia now! He wants the war stopped or his money back. Hes been paying off Ts debts and helped him win both 2016 and 2024. Additionally, whatever kompromat he has on him T is scared of pewtin. (And those that know this in the GOP are scared; i.e. his reference to WW3. They, too, are threatened as they sold their souls.)
2. Meanwhile, Elong has been working on his goals as the mad ketamine master of AI, the universe and as #1 trillionaire. But hes been loosing $$$M from Tesla, spaceyX and Twits and was under investigation from multiple govt agencies. Air appears over the past few years, he has been negotiating Spacelink deals with pewtin and other despots. Elong is a self-centered loose cannon and an idiot - not a brilliant businessman. He knows nothing about how govt. works. And who gave him all those government contracts? Right there is the waste, fraud and abuse that are the repeated talking points. All his projects were failing.
3. Pewtin turns elong into the middleman to get into ts head, help secure him a get out of jail card and try to rig him into to the presidency. All for the small price of allowing Elong with the assistance of P2025 team to dismantle the US and rob money our government to payback pewtin. Elong wins by erasing his investigations, getting his precious data and wants to get the hell out of there. But now now must they find the means to secure the money (hiding from GDP) and appear to be planning to move it via cryptocurrency.
It appears to be a huge extortion scheme. Perhaps this why the spineless GOP seem to have lost their minds (even more than usual) to ts demented reality or elongs ketamine dream. They been silenced or threatened or been in the pewtin pocket (Lindsey?) for years.
Its payback time. Pewtin desperately needs it now.

(1,831 posts)The Entire Wall Street Journal Editorial Board Just Called Out Trump for His 3-Axis Strongman Plans!
The entire editorial board of the Wall Street Journal stated that he likely is pushing through plans to return the world to pre-WWII regional axis of powers with the U.S., Russia, and China having influence and control over territories in their region. This is exactly what Britains MI6 leader just said on the BBC News program.
They said that the Trump Administration hasnt been straight with the American people about their plans to carve the world into 3 strongman regional powers. This was never made apparent to the American people during the election.
These moves taken together hint at a worldview that has long been the goal of American isolationists: Let China dominate the Pacific, Russia dominate Europe, and the U.S. the Americas. The Middle East would presumably remain a region of contention, a least until Mr. Trump does a nuclear deal with Iran.

Game, set, match!
The article contains links to WSJ, former MI6 person on BBC, and link to Warren Buffets sons views.
Sooooo Putin gets Europe, China gets the Pacific, and Trump gets the Americas and probably Gaza.
Are we really headed back to post WWI?
