Trumps babysitters are reportedly calling around to House Republicans and insisting that Elon Musk is merely following Trumps orders. The presidency is slipping away from a senile Trump already, and hes just sitting there while his babysitters try to give the impression Trump is in charge.

Trump's Chief of Staff "mommy figure" is sure quiet. Oh that's right she is Elon's chief of staff.

(17,047 posts)We've got Biden and Harris coming back to Washington when they were on their way to their Christmas vacations. Also, I know it sounds silly, but we've got these swarms of drones flying around. Those things might not be related, but the drones punctuate the weirdness of these times. And the inauguration is just around the corner. What is going on with the military right now? Is Trump going to declare martial law? He's capable of anything.

No word on the drones either.
Trump and his people are out of control.
Is Trump even in the picture at this point.
If this is what Trump et al are doing now, what is planned for next month?

Since Musk has the most money, are they coalescing around him as the leader who will best protect their interests?
What does Putin think about this? Trump is too senile to be of much use to him any more.

(59,819 posts)We know the global billionaires and fascists are now aligned.
They know Trump is senile and incompetent.
Putin and the billionaires are pals with Musk.
So yes they could have taken power.
Who knows, maybe Musk is just their dancing bear.
Give him enough drugs along with his ego and he is easily manipulated like Trump is.
I read one rumor that no one even knows if Putin is calling the shots in Russia.
He has been rumored to be quite ill. So are the Russian and global billionaires
calling the shots in Russia too?
Don't know.

But, yes, international billionaires are not democracy supporters and will cooperate in bringing down democratic governments when they are not competing with each other for wealth and power.
Welcome to the return of Medieval government, with wealthy international royalty maintaining power and a wealth gap over the rest of the population. Maybe more akin to the Dark Ages than to the Middle Ages.
We saw for ourselves some of the videos where Putin cannot sit up without holding onto the table.
And other clips along the same lines.
Putin's use of body doubles is well known.
I just thought it was interesting that you were speculating whether the billionaires have take over
Trump's duties, and I had just read some rumors about the same thing at the Kremlin.
Yes billionaires have aligned with the fascist leaders because they are completely done with
democracy. It stands in the way of their goals of permanent power and access to all global wealth and resources.
They believe everything belongs to them.
Oh yes it is a return to feudal times and the Dark Ages.
The end of science, education and progress.
And all the wealth is owned by our new lords and masters, the billionaires.

The richest man in the world is also the most powerful person in the world right now.
may it continue ... they certainly deserve this.
