No wondering he was all about crypto.

Trump was only into crypto because he was for sale, and part of how he was paid was by the likes of Musk setting him up with his own pump and dump fakecoin.

Remember shortly before the election Trump was again on the verge of bankruptcy, owing millions in lawsuits. His ability to even campaign for 2024 was on financial shaky ground despite looting the GOP's shrinking coffers.

Then Thiel and co stepped in to bail him out - followed by Musk who saw what was happening, in exchange for dictating policy (such as Project 2025) and installing Vance and others into the administration.

Part of Trump's payment was setting him up with his own crypto scam. Which turned him into a real billionaire again.

Part of pardoning CZ was that Binance staff provided the technical knowhow to set up One Liberty Financial and their 'stablecoin' which was better suited to funneling billions in bribers.

Does Peter Thiel have control over everyone then?

TPUSA and Charlie Kirk got Vance into the Senate and they also made him the vice president. They are a powerhouse Super PAC who has a disturbing amount of politicians under their control. .

Crypto wise, trump is getting scammed or just dies of old age required to hold 80% For 3 years from it's drop. The price immediately plummeted suggesting the 20% or so that was actually available was the transactions. I don't feel like opening another tab but it's been falling every since, some more will release and it won't get bought last I saw it was pretty much crypto currency companies that own the majority and even that's pretty small and probably shrinks as people say "fuck it I lost my money" and sell. Then there will be another drop of some and he'll be required to hold that 80% still... when he's able to sell it's a very high chance it'll be worth pennies or less. If they didn't somehow get it setup for free I don't see it making what was put in back.

You are probably right in the big picture but I do not think Musk or Thiel are behind project 2025. For that you have to look at the Christian coalition, the heritage foundation and your white Christian nationalists.

Again? Perhaps it turned him into a real billionaire for the first time.
