Two special men will give special addresses at the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland next week. They are speaking within a half hour of each other. Trump II goes first followed by his Quasimodo economic twin, Argentinian President Javier Milei.
The World Economic Forum is an annual meeting of global tamperers that leverages state power on behalf of the wealthy. If that were not true how did the WEF fail so badly on income inequality, a key issue for that body for over twelve years?
The Forum welcomed Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman back with open arms after a Saudi consulate was used to kill Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi and the Crown Prince himself used the Riyadh Ritz Carlton to imprison and torture royal family members and Saudi businessmen in a monetary shakedown.
Trump's first Defense Secretary wants history books to ignore the Gaza victims, as if trapping women and children in a war zone is an everyday occurrence and should be normalized.
Trump is fresh off seizing Venezuela's Nicholas Maduro and his wife in order to control the country's oily parts. Now he is considering a run at Greenland, fantasizing about grabbing that country by its icy patch.
And who better to turn large chunks of Greenland real estate over to? A bunch of transplanted South Africans, now U.S. TechGod billionaires. They need a cheap place to cool data centers until they can locate them in space. Also, they can do anything better than anyone else and that means running a city free of regulations and employment law. Greenland has large open spaces in which to set up corporate towns, governed solely by TechGods.
This should all get a Henry F. Potter "hiss." Potter was the robber baron villain in the movie "It's a Wonderful Life." It was a tradition for college students to hiss at Potter when appeared on the screen during the movie showings at the end of a long fall semester.
Trump and Milei are interested only in their wonderful lives, as are many of their supporters. TechGods, major and minor, funded Trump II, gave him his #2-J.D. Vance and answer the phone every time Trump calls wanting money for his next boondoggle.
TechGod Peter Thiel, Vance's mentor, needs a government free zone to accomplish his nefarious goals, so much so that he distorted The Bible's Revelations, turning the anti-Christ into a one world government regulator, a vile corporate oppressor.
TechGod Joe Lonsdale needs a government free zone to bring back public executions. That's why he helped found Palantir.
Another TechGod wants to ditch the First Amendment, defining acceptable and unacceptable speech in order to ensure one national narrative.
Trump's fixation on Greenland is as opportunistic as his teen beauty pageant dressing room incursions. He does things because he can. Congress and the Supremes are the crowd on 5th Avenue sitting on their hands after Trump shot somebody.
We'll see what the Davos crowd does next week with our Pedophile Protector in the White House. I hope the F-You's and middle fingers abound. Creep is as creep does.
Update 1-17-26: Trump II's promise to cut Americans' energy bills in half is unfulfilled as energy prices rose during a time when many could not afford it.
“your energy bill within 12 months will be cut in half. I’ll have your energy bill down within 12 months, throughout the country … That’s my pledge, all over the country.”I doubt this failure makes his Davos ramble.
Javier Milei made the Gaza Board of Peace and some Israelis are upset that Trump II made board choices without consulting Israeli leaders.
Update 1-18-26: Other reporters have seen the schism between Trump II;s "might makes right" and the Davos set's rules based order. The meeting will occur fresh off Trump's planned usurping of the United Nations via his Board of Peace, more aptly called Trump's Board of Pieces of Eight.
