just in case you wondered why Trump loves Crypto so much....

Quote

Political corruption traditionally calls to mind a paper trail of shady contracts and backroom deals.

But University of Michigan business law expert Will Thomas argues cryptocurrency is opening the door to a whole new system of corruption: a crypto kleptocracy.

Because the transactions are automated, there’s often no record. Current bribery laws are basically becoming obsolete because they’re looking for a classic quid pro quo that crypto just doesn’t need to function.

Thomas, assistant professor of business law at U-M’s Ross School of Business, shares his research—co-authored with Jeffery Zhang, assistant professor at U-M’s Law School—and insights on the latest episode of the Business & Society podcast. He explores and explains how digital assets are reshaping the U.S. political landscape

I keep worrying he's gonna push the button once he realizes he's going to die any second now, and this does nothing to dissuade me. And the evangelicals thinks this is all just dandy because that's how Revelations has foretold it.

He doesn't push anything.  He needs to read some numbers off a card.  I am not entirely sure he'd be able to do that.

He can get someone who will sacrifice their life for him to stand in for him. Probably a Michael Flynn type.

And deny himself the one last rush that personally ending the world would give him?  I don't think so.

Point is, I think he could find someone to cooperate with him. Remember, he is surrounded by people whose mission it is to do everything possible to frontburner Jesus's return to Earth.

If he knows he is going to die, I think his next move would be to arrange to have his head frozen ala Ted Williams.  Eric and Jr will sell his head to the highest bidder.

Yeah, might as well have a laugh about it. We can't change what he's going to do.

Well, maybe you can. Maybe you know something. I know I can't. 😏

I don't think he has a desire to end the world.  I think he would like to be celebrated forever after his death.  You and I will never celebrate him, but many will.  If he ends the world, nobody will be left to remember him.

Flip side: if he can't live in this world, no one can.

Absolute, outright, unadulterated theft of taxpayer dollars to protect his friends and acolytes from the government he presides over.

He's pumping up his personal army, which he intends to deploy against the rest of us, because that's the only way he can vanquish a country the majority of whose citizens is flat out opposed to him.

He's going to want her buried alive with him in his sarcophagus. 

I don't know about Ivanka, but Melania for sure. Can't leave her behind to start telling tales after he's gone.

Doesn't she have an NDA? Don't they all?

It is beyond horrifying just how bought off everyone along the way is.
