You really are stuck on this idea that I said something about the American election... I didn't.

Why would it offend me? I'm not Professor John Mearshiemer:

'The Blob' is his concept, what he calls it... And it has nothing to do with constraining votes in elections. It has to do with constraining the actions and choices of an American President when they're in power.

I think you just don't understand the concept (for whatever reason), and have mistaken these real world organizations (that make up The Blob) as the fanciful stuff of conspiracy theories...

...no, they all actually exist, and have stated purposes and membersship lists, mission statement, budgets, ect.

P.S The EU controls companies through their legislative and legal bodies, which have sanctions, and market influence. They're why apple can no longer have their own changing jacks - because although you're not aware of it, they do hold sway over companies.

You not being aware of this, is not the same as them being "teenage fantasies" or folklore.

The other option is that things don't change because there's an invisible set of organizations and agreements that force the status quo to be reproduced.

This set of organizations is what John Miershiemer calls "The Blob". It includes all sorts of thing tanks, the world bank, the council on foreign relations, NATO, this melding of big money corporations and political interests that control enough money and influence over how society is run, that not even Trump will truly be able to change the fundamentals in any substantial or lasting way.

The level of change stops when it risks their money and the stability of The Blob. We do not know what life would be like without The Blob - because we've never had it.

People don't understand, they both speak the same language. They're both natural grifters... What's more Musk is probably better at it than Trump was. Trump needed lessons from Roy Cohn, who was a ruthless, damaged, low empathy, closet homosexual and self-hater.

Musk didn't need that kind of mentor, he's a natural grifter, and my bet is that Trump is fascinated by him. They do similar things in different ways.

Only in certain scenarios would this blow up, and Musk has already bent the knee to Trump, so those scenarios are unlikely.

Musk is a friendly fellow grifter Trump can use, and has power over, which is what Trump likes.

At best we'll see Musk become a fall guy for Trump's shortcomings. But seeing as Trump may later die in office, Musk might also avoid such a fate. Only time will tell.

Coming to a Cinema near you.

Liberals still hating on Bernie supporters and refusing to accept the idea that voters wanted a shake up of the system, rather than a female version of the status quo establishment left?

...so now we're stuck with a right wing shake up to the system instead.
