Not in the evil, globalist kind of way but a counter balance to Soros, working behind the scenes at local and state levels.

Well, Sheldon Adelson did just pass away, so there's an opening on the team, so to speak.

But, I agree - until something is done about Dominion and ballot harvesting, well-to-do folks on the right will be defensive and trying to stay out of jail rather than influencing policy and elections*.

Trump doesn’t even come close to Soros type money

Trump isn’t the same animal as Soros in that he doesn’t like or operate as the man behind the curtain, manipulating things.

Trump likes the limelight, he feeds off energy, he is a confronter.

But I think Trump will fund certain people and organizations.

Trump isn't even right wing. He's a centrist at best, which is now considered right wing extremism. Wake me up when a small government guy sits in the White House, then we can say we've had a right wing President.

Soros has around $8B.

Trump has around $1B.

Trump spends his money to promote Trump. He’s not giving it away to Mr. District-Attorney-Candidate-From-Topeka. But he would probably go do a rally for them for a fee. That’s the future of Trump’s Political Action

The left gives money to Soros...taxpayer money is funneled into his NGOs. Trump finances will be hit hard as the left will continue to try to cancel him. They will attack his hotels world wide, they are already getting banks to stop doing business with him.

Right, and relatively speaking, Soros isn't that rich. If I am a speck of krill and people like Musk, Gates, and Bezos are blue whales, Trump is something like a dolphin and Soros is something like a mid sized orca.

Soros isn't all powerful because he is immeasurably rich. He's all powerful because he has somehow managed to turn the riches he does have into influence unlike anyone else.

Trump sacrificed a hell of a lot trying to be a president that we did not deserve... Truth be told, he will probably sacrifice more than he already has...

Why would he be interested in sacrificing more?

It is going to be up to the states to fix their election law and keep the SoS and Govs hands off of it. Clean the rolls, get rid mail in ballots and stick with absentee ballots with a reason and including strict verification.

No. Trump's too old. Soros started the groundwork for his shite decades ago. It was a slow process. It required a lot of help at the local and federal level of government. That's why his funded groups are allowed to freely grow unhindered, even though the sole purpose of those groups, is to create civil unrest and violence.


If trump started doing that.. the local and federal government will shut down his funded groups. They will say that any group that is designed to create social unrest, is illegal. Those groups wouldn't be allowed to grown. Trump has no foundation to do that and he's too old to start from scratch, imo.

Could be, but Soros has much more disposable wealth and more of a desire to be in the shadows. Trump's biggest fault is that he always wants to be in the limelight.

The best thing Trump could do now is start or buy his own media company.

Exactly this. Whatever Soros has Trump has measurably less and little to none of that is very liquid.
