When even a flaming bag of poo like Thiel waffles on his support, you know the big orange turd is in trouble.

WHATSLEFT

Peter Thiel is ready to install Vance into the WH.

I was wondering when somebody was going to connect those dots.

With an eye on '28, Vance has been gently trying to distance himself from Trump about the Iran war.

Since Thiel has been Vance's primary financial support over many years and the one who paid Trump to pick Vance as his V.P., it isn't Trump he's abandoning. It's Vance he's supporting, just like he's always done.

Since Vance isn't the brightest porch light in town, it's assumed that Thiel, who doesn't have an altruistic bone in his body, intends to become a shadow president, not for good of America but rather to steer legislation and funding to his several California tech businesses. Once again, it's all about money.

Surprise? LOL ~ hardly.

Thiel is a Vampire.

His lover man offed himself. Because Peter Squashed him Emotionally and controlled his every Move. Thiel never even Blinked.

He runs businesses that Surveil and Target Americans.

He's a creepy fascist pig.

His money is secondary to his lust for Domination.

That's the real Danger, not him getting even more morbidly rich and detached from Reality.

What is this "we" of which you speak, oligarch?
Trump is your guy, he is totally owned by big oil, and they are making out like bandits as their oil is priced as high as oil from other places, and now that the Straits are mostly closed...
Imagine being poor, with little to no savings as a buffer, and trying to have children and raise them happy and healthy...
