  3. Chińskie zakupy materiałów do półprzewodników przed powrotem Trumpem

    Osobiście nie jestem pewnie, czy Trump od razu wejdzie na ścieżkę szybkiej konfrontacji handlowej i technologicznej z Chinami. Wydaje mi się obecnie otorbiony ludźmi jak Elon Musk czy Jeff Yass, mocno zależnymi od chińskiego rynku. Ten ostatni jest dużym sponsorem Republikanów i równocześnie inwestorem w ByteDance, właściciela TikTok.

  4. #JeffYass’s firm holds a 2% stake in #DWAC &, considering its other assets, can afford some hits as long as #Yass gets to own the libs.

    On #TrumpMedia’s end, its current board of directors is hardly lacking in wealth, or loyalty: The CEO is fmr Rep #DevinNunes, & his teammates include #DonaldTrumpJr + fmr #Trump admin members #KashPatel, #RobertLighthizer, & Linda McMahon (as in, yes, the wife of embattled wrestling magnate Vince McMahon).

  5. You may be wondering just whence that staggering #valuation arises,then. There are a couple factors at play—namely, rich friends & retail-level suckers.
    …As a #ShellCompany established w/the express purpose of gathering #investments & absorbing them into the minimally operational #TrumpMedia, #DWAC curried investments from all manner of private institutions,most significantly #SIG… meaning #JeffYass, the #Republican #megadonor who’s been floated as potential #treasury sec if #Trump is reelected.

  6. "Many have pointed out the curious timing of [Trump's] reversal [on TikTok], which he announced soon after he met with Jeff Yass. Yass is a hedge fund manager, Republican megadonor, and the holder of a significant stake in ByteDance, which is now fighting tooth and nail against Congress’s efforts to limit or ban the app and reduce its significant influence on the public."

    Short story: Trump needs money and is for sale.
