Saudi Golf, Trump, Elon Musk & Hoffa

Starting a new thread here just to tie all this together. To me you can't look at this new Saudi Golf league without talking about their support for Trump. Two of their inaugural 6 tournaments will be played at Trump properties. Along with just handing $2 billion to Jared Kushner this seems like another way to keep pouring money into Trump's coffers.








Of course it's getting more obvious by the minute that Elon Musk is using twitter to settle some kind of score with Biden and thus helping Trump..

Has us by the balls for as long as we are dependent on Saudi oil.

And like Putin, he has found allies in the Grand old Traitor party.

Almost forgot.. it's not a great analogy but it brought to mind how Frank Fitzsimmons was going to keep Hoffa's seat warm at the Teamsters while Jimmy was in prison. The Mafia (like the Saudis and Elon Musk among others) realized they had a soft touch with Fitsimmons. They didn't want Hoffa back.

The Saudis obviously have Trump in their back pocket and I believe Elon Musk has come to this same conclusion..
