Trump the Usurper in the Age of Sponsorship


Blue Team candidate Kamala Harris couldn't even own her teenage McDonald's employment in the recent Presidential race.  Red Team candidate Donald Trump donned an apron and dared touch the "french fry doohickey" without burning or contaminating his hands.  As Trump hip-checked his opponent's teen resume, McDonald's was in the midst of an E. coli outbreak  

Vice President J.D. Vance has had multiple sponsors, Peter Thiel, Steve Case, various other TechGods and now Donald Trump.  

It is the era of numerous high paying jobs for the politically connected.  In the olden days any one of those jobs would have been full-time.  No more.  Handsome pay comes for insiders by just showing up, thus the Age of Sponsorship.  

Elon Musk is camping at the courtly feet of the President-elect in Mara Lago.  Investors in his numerous companies are yet to speak out about not getting their money's worth.  While Musk disappoints Fidelity, Trump demands it.

What happens when the cult of personality interacts with another cult of personality?  Trump will decide.  

My guess is Trump will usurp Musk's everything, a la Rudy Giuliani.  Afterwards, will Donald spank him with a Forbes Billionaire List magazine?  

Update 11-14-24:  Kara Swisher shared a similar sentiment about the clash of cults.

John Bolton actually cares about national security and wants Trump nominees investigated prior to confirmation.

Update 11-29-24:  Donald Trump usurped his own ethics law by declaring he is above same.  It's a donarchy.

Update 11-30-24:  Trump II announced the appointment of yet another tyrannical rectum, this one for the FBI.  The Red Team will reveal if it is completely insane if they approve this sponsored pick.

Update 12-8-24:  The E Coli of US Politics, Donald Trump, usurped the image of Jill Biden to hawk his latest retail product, perfume and cologne.  It's called "Fight, fight, fight" and mostly covers any Quarter Pounder related "Fart, fart, fart."

Update 12-15-24:  Tyrannical rectum Elon Musk did the following:
As Donald Trump gears up to return to the White House, his favorite billionaire buddy, Elon Musk, is sending a warning to Republicans: Support the president-elect’s Cabinet picks, or else. Musk is now threatening to financially back a primary challenge to any Republican senator who opposes Trump’s nominees.
I'm sure the founders of our country would have wanted the legislative branch to capitulate to the executive.  TechGods?  What is this bizarre class of people?
