Step 10: Lose political office and make a huge deal out of it. Complain of a rigged election, but actually be happy about results and get into lobbying?

Trump is totally going to bail and blame Biden saying it was rigged against him.

Wow no way! That dude definitely looks 10-15 years older. I thought he was mid 40s.

I could totally see Tesla reincorporation in Texas and then the board putting another pay package up for a vote out of spite.

Tech investors and podcasters David Sacks and Chamath Palihapitiya are hosting a fundraiser for Donald Trump at a San Francisco mansion.

These guys are mad that Bidens administration hasn't been as friendly to mega corps, venture capital and crypto. Chamath specifically has had some SPACs get questioning from the SEC bc he wasn't being honest about the companies. If I remember correctly during the GameStop short squeeze, Palihapitiya repeatedly attacked Robinhood and its founders for being unethical by selling payment for order flow to HFT firms like Citadel Securities and pushed his fans to switch over to SoFi, which was merging with his SPAC. yet failed to mention that SoFi employs the same practice of selling payment for order flow to HFT firms (including to Citadel Securities) and owns a 16% stake in Apex Clearing Corp, a clearing house involved in the controversy

Can we just bring polygamy back then so there can be 3 incomes in a household?

The resolution would have repealed the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 121, which sought to force financial institutions that are holding crypto to keep the digital assets on their own balance sheets, as Coindesk recently explained.

Can someone explain why they are so upset at this?

I agree that's his shtick but his base votes more with emotion and bad things are easier to sell to them than good things.

Yeah, but unfortunately with how charged everything is if he gets anything he will claim political persecution and try to be a martyr ( his campaign has claimed they already raised 55m since the conviction). It's why I think he didn't get really anything bad when he violated the gag order so much.
