Oh I was enjoying that and he was so close to creating a concise narrative, but he overlooked a few little things (or maybe ignored them on purpose).
Biden has talked tough on big tech a few times, when politically convenient, in reality he stuffed his staff with tech employees and lobbyists, and Kamala herself was basically implicit in the FB purchase of insta and WhatsApp lol.
Biden was incredibly soft on big tech, except for Musk who he started a war with for no apparent reason. Zuckerberg has stated publicly he colluded with Bidens government during COVID, and that he was threatened into suppressing the Hunter laptop story.
Trump on the other hand has threatened zuckerberg with imprisonment if he meddled with an election again.
Bezos is a life long Democrat, financially supported them and didn't Obama give Amazon a 10 billion CIA contract?
With all this in mind, does it make sense that Trump is an agent of the 3 tech bros, when all 3 have profited massively from Democrat policies, including dodgy anti competition takeovers, and even the greatest transfer of wealth from the poor to the billionaires between 2020 and 2023. Even Musk has a long feud history with Trump and has voted Dem forever, whether you believe the switch came about at being snubbed from an EV conference at the whitehouse or not, Musk seemingly saw the writing on the wallaround ear gate time.
I really don't think 2 of these would have had any issue with Kamala, they know her, they worked with her, and they would have cosy'd up with her happily.
With all this in mind, it's safe to say, these 3 guys aren't string pulling Trump looking for an avenue in the back door, because 2 of the 3 have already entered through the back door, slipped on mums nightgown and given dad a handy shandy under the quilt.
So the theory loses credibility with me there, but he certainly is correct about data being an issue, and these 3 guys being major problems. They are leaches, and I find it annoying now when they have been promoted for decades by Dems and the left (yes I'll include myself in that previously) that they are only now being painted as evil bond villains now they are leaning into a Republican government, when in reality they've all been evil bond villains for decades!!!
Watching little old lady's go from telling people electric cars and Teslas are going to change the world, to keying Tesla cars because the owner is affiliated with the wrong politician is wild to me.
Politicians are scumbags, these 3, and a number of others saw the writing on the wall when Kamala stepped up, and after Trump got shot (ish, depends which theory you believe) Musk went full Trump train, Zuckerberg started wining and dining him, and Bezos fresh off the back of pillaging the Obama and Biden terms of 100s of billions of dollars, even decided not to have his beloved post endorse any candidate. These leaches knew what was coming, and the risk of opposing Trump was greater than the risk of... well there was no risk on the other side.
230 needs repealing IMO, but I'm not that up to date on it, maybe I'm swayed by my hatred for social media. Trump made a small run at it late in his first term, threatening defence spending if it didn't get repealed. I thinknit was Wired who wrote an article on it called Trump vs Trump. They highlight perfectly the way his words weren't backed by real action, with his trade deals using 230.
Ultimately, every opposition party accuses the government of big tech cosying, and they're right, these leaches always get what they want from every government, but to relate this back to the video...
Trump's scattergun strategy isn't 4D chess IMO, I always find it funny that those who hate Trump call him both a moron AND an evil genius at the same time. Trump's been let off the reigns, I think the instance that proves Trump's mindset the best is an action not by him but by his creepy son Baron.
As he's shaking hands with Biden he seemed to say 'it's on now' or 'it's time now'. Either way it appears to be a gloat (may be 100% wrong tbf) and you just knew Trump had nothing to lose.
I think Trump is like a kid in a sweet shop, he wants to do a bit of everything, he doesn't care what the media say or does anymore, he's got those he want in place and he's looking (dangerously IMO) to rubber stamp his name into the history books. I genuinely think his reputation as a global peace maker in his first term has got to him as he tries to prove it again and again, and becomes the 1st president to blah blah blah this time.
