Oddbean new post about login | logout Hmm I didn’t consider that his death would lead to a low voter turnout. I thought they’d rally toward the next republican for sure. If it did cause disillusion, that would be bad for the entire political system and the legitimacy of government. Who do you think did this? Random act of violence or someone with power?
My guess is some alphabet agency sponsored moron. They usually pick crazy people.
I thought about that a lot but I can’t wrap my head around the logic of it. They’ve done similar things before but what do they have to gain from this? I don’t think they’d get someone who would miss that many shots if they really wanted him dead. They also had two shooters which is crazy.
I think incompetence & luck are far more prevalent than people successfully playing some sort of 4d chess. Corp media already being weird...? Seems to be suppressed on fbook https://image.nostr.build/9dc1b6b77b26a31b06ae3d84070e10917d06b01e5fba0c5cc364bd4499fd3670.jpg
Nah don’t think many would rally toward the next republican. Trump in a league of his own to a lot of his supporters
So you think that majority of people would vote Biden if trump died? You don’t think people would just vote republican out of anger?
If Trump had been killed today, I’m fearful we wouldn’t be worried about what the voting would look like in November. And I take no pleasure in saying that. Dark times.
The more I think about it, the more it seems like your theory was correct. The fed doesn’t care who the president is, but they care about the president’s stance on bitcoin. If trump went to the Bitcoin conference, it would rally the price and hurt the dollar. It could’ve been an actual attempt to kill or just a warning. If trump still ends up going, then this theory is probably wrong.
