Trump signs order establishing a sovereign wealth fund that he says could buy TikTok

[acosmichippo@lemmy.world]

uh socialism much, republicans?

[wewbull@feddit.uk]

I thought TrumpCoin was the sovereign's wealth fund.

[masterofn001@lemmy.ca]

His supporters now love socialism.

[futatorius@lemm.ee]

That's not socialism. It's state capitalism. Socialism would mean the workers owned (and controlled, not just nominally owned) the means of production.

[futatorius@lemm.ee]

He's off the leash. Neither Congress nor the Supreme Court will stop him.

Two inches from the best timeline. We got fucked.

What two inches? What was the best timeline that we missed out on so narrowly? 2000? Because Reagan won by a lot, if I’m remembering correctly.

[naeap@sopuli.xyz]

There was no socialism in the party... Wether historically, nor now

[phdepressed@sh.itjust.works]

I mean any timeline without this 2nd Trump term would be a heck of a lot nicer.

[erasmus@lemmy.world]

Yes think of it more akin to what the Germans did to companies that failed or that they didn’t like during WW2.

Very similar premise.

[sunzu2@thebrainbin.org]

Pretty sure Hitler provided something to the "proper" Germans... Trump ain't gonna do shot for his pleb base, just the owner class base like President Musk.

[sunzu2@thebrainbin.org]

Sometimes shit to get really bad before it gets worse...

Example: the great depression.

But it doesn't seem like Trump pleb supporters are coming around.. Yet. Let's see how much abuse they can take from daddy.

The funny thing is, if just won't work. Ok, he says to do it. Some lackey goes off to do it. But someone has to sign the check. The money has to come from somewhere. That's when the shit hits the fan.

Unless Congress does whatever he says like little lap dogs. Ok, yeah, I convinced myself now that it'll happen.

[acosmichippo@lemmy.world]

except the state owning businesses part.

The money has to come from somewhere.

That's why elons team took over the treasury payments system.

[surewhynotlem@lemmy.world]

Oof... Yeah, there it is

Of course there wasn’t. Calling it like that was a marketing ploy to pull in leftist workers (see eg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Party). Fun part is that this trick still works, given how often it is used as evidence that “left-leaning people are the real nazis”.

Indeed, his rhetoric gave the people back their pride, he gave them infrastructure and a job and helped Germany from the ruins of WW1 back on its feet. All for a massive war effort (and much, much worse), as it turned out.
Orange Mussolini is just an awful grifter, in it for himself indeed.

Can’t put all eggs in one basket eh?
