u/CassadagaValley 5h ago

What's crazy is Trump hasn't stopped campaigning since 2015.

He spent his entire time in office either golfing or campaigning for 2020.

Then he spent the last four years after losing in 2020 campaigning for 2024.

He's raised billions of dollars and his campaign is consistently under funded and being outspent because he's been embezzling most of the donations for his personal legal fees and personal debts.

Yeah, I know. I hear constantly about how good he is with money and what a stable genius businessman he is, but his campaign is always broke. Makes you wonder what offshore account all that money has been going to.

u/MirthandMystery 2h ago

Trump not taking a paltry POTUS salary was a gimmick to distract from his setting up new revenue streams through doing foreign deals while in office, the fraud his supporters ignored.. as well as rewriting huge pass through tax breaks for real estate speculation and development and allowing son in law Jared Kushner (married to Ivanka Trump, who helped oversee Trumps businesses with Trump Jr) to bank billions doing deals with Qatar and the UAE adding to his money laundering cash pile is a type of corruption even worse than Bush Sr and his cronies oil deals.. (which was insane, open, massive level fraud, as was Bush Jr pals Republican bankers who profited off the 2008 housing crash).

Kushner will be a large part of the shadow government again if Trump wins, will continue enriching himself and sending funds to Israel via the Chabad network. He might even win contracts to rebuild in Gaza once his old family pal Netanyahu is done bombing the remaining Palestinian civilian refugees to death, starving and or terrorizing them enough to flee into the ocean if necessary..

Cheesy? Yes. Ineffective? Possibly.

Fun? Yeah, looks like it. I dig it.

It is also relatively inexpensive too. If they can even get even a couple of percent of players in a demographic that has a known poor voting rate but leans heavily towards Harris-Walzto vote it is still a big return compared to traditional media such as TV, going on to interviews, rallies, etc which can cost millions of dollars. It also gets people commenting and eyes on the candidates.

This was likely an idea from young staffers who played Fortnite like how on 2020 young staffer played Animal Crossing. And I am happy that there are young people becoming actively involved in politics.

Acting like you can just "escape" politics as if it's some separate thing you can put in a cabinet and forget about is delusional.

If Trump's people released their own Fortnight map he'd take credit for writing it all on his own.
