re: Interesting exchange between Tim Poole and Benny Johnson on Timcast

I’ve come to think this is probably the case as well. Also there are many very disturbing financial/market trends floating out there and I think it’s quite likely a serious recession hits over the next few years, and they would prefer to burn Trump at the stake for that rather than sacrifice one of their own and be in much worse shape (optics wise) in 4 years.

Another factor is Ukraine is going to lose and it’s coming soon. The most recent funding was just a bandaid to get through this election and save face.

Whether Trump can influence things to come out of these factors positively, or prevent them (at least the financial one) altogether, remains to be seen.
