29. Already fighting over the spoils of War?
Tue Dec 31, 2024, 08:17 PM
Dec 31

Fighting over the imagined 'benefits' they will receive, 'rightfully', under a 'Trump' administration?

Bannon expects this, Musk expects that?

Hopefully they will eat each other and disappear.

Wishing for something to come out of left field and scuttling their ego driven plans.

. . . I'm wandering off muttering dark words about Trump's age, senility, bad diet, sad mental state, etc.

Expect a multiplicity of fights for power and influence if Trump doesn't want to actually do the POTUS job - Bannon, Musk, Vance, maybe a few others.
