    Trump’s campaign has bled his supporters pretty hard

    Trump got his $175M civil bond paid by a single California billionaire auto-loan shark, Don Hankey. I just don’t think you understand how deep the well goes, when it comes to right-wing suckers and fascist fellow-travelers.

    I suspect there’s something fucky going on.

    I have no doubt there’s fuckery going on. Probably layers of fuckery, as speculators pile on top of boiler room penny stock hustlers to goose the price of this golden turd. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned from the Bitcoin con-job, its that if you inflate an asset’s value high enough, you can eventually off-load it on the public sector by claiming “this will create economic growth”.
