harder to get stuff there. There'll be retaliation, etc. And then you have the separate problem that if you just become the tariff country, wouldn't it cause other people to find workarounds and not sell things to you? Or would it cause people to... there would be some confusion if you tried to use it as a weapon if it was also your normal way of doing business. But I suppose you could still crank…
← Previous segment →s really real and fair I guess I see what bad things I did. Not one. Do you think that Trump really believed that was a fair election? If I had been in his place I don't think I would have. Now I don't know if it was fair or not. I just know that nobody else knows. And it looked like it was sending the signals that it was rigged. You know if you go to bed and you're winning and you wake up and you lost and something like, I don't remember the number, is it 18 out of 19 bellwethers went the wrong direction? If your bellwethers go the wrong direction and there's a last minute come from behind hard to explain win, yeah that's every signal in the world. Beyond that you don't even have to see the signals. If you know that the other side had been saying that they're trying to stop Hitler and you see what things they did to try to stop what they thought was Hitler, rigging an election would be the least dramatic thing. The lawfare is way worse than rigging the election. Way worse. So we know they did things way worse than rigging an election. That's pretty established. So rigging an election would just be normal business if they really thought they were stopping Hitler.
You probably heard this story on if you're on X but I saw a post by Stephanie Tyler and she describes the following. So there are a number of older books that are hard to explain their existence unless time travel is real or we live in a simulation. So courtesy of Stephanie Tyler I will summarize a little bit.
So it starts like this. Nikola Tesla dies. So back when Tesla was the man he dies and the only person allowed to access his safe, the one containing all his most secret inventions, is somebody named John G. Trump, a brilliant MIT scientist and, oh by coincidence, Donald Trump's uncle, who conveniently says, ah, there's nothing to see in there. Now if this were the only coincidence it would be really weird, wouldn't it? What are the odds that Nikola Tesla dies and Donald Trump's uncle is the one who has access to his secrets? That's so weird.
But it gets weirder. In 1958 there was something called Trackdown I think that must have been a TV show featuring a con man named Walter Trump. And Walter Trump was trying to sell people a magic wall to save them from the end of the world. Okay, now what are the odds that there would be a book about somebody named Trump who really wants a wall? Okay, that's a coincidence too. But we're not done.
1953, Wernher von Braun, the head of the rocket program, the father of rocket science, published a book about humans colonizing Mars led by a guy named Elon. Elon, E-L-O-N. So the guy that the father of rockets thought would be the leader on Mars was named Elon.
Okay it gets weirder. Even before that in the 1890s, Ingersoll Lockwood, author, writes about a story about Baron Trump, that's the actual name, Baron Trump, a kid from Castle Trump going on wild adventures with a guide named Don. What? And then writes a book called The Last President where chaos breaks out in America after the election of an outsider. What?
And then you fast forward to now. We have Elon Musk who runs a company named Tesla named after Tesla and is obsessed with getting us to Mars and is not only working with Trump but quite literally got him elected and has even visited his magic wall. That's what Stephanie Tyler says. This is really good threa

d by the way, Stephanie. How is any of that real? Even Elon, when he commented about the person leading Mars named Elon, even Elon said how is this real? How could it possibly be real? Now I'll tell you how it could be real. Think of all the books that have ever been written. All the books that have ever been written. Don't you think that if you could search all the books that have ever been writ…
