Oh no…it gets better.
He also lifted sanctions on Russian oil, thus giving money to the country that is sending troops and arms that are fighting against US backed operations in Ukraine, and also supplying Iran with weapons.

He didn't actually author the book, that would be work

What a play.
Also I have a question. Maybe somebody can answer.
How the fuck is it that any country can impose all these rules on other countries?
So I knew a guy from Iran.
From Instagram. He made 3d printable models (really unique and interesting ones with the theme of dead head moths, tigers, other moths. Skulls. here is a link to a few pictures of ones I printed. https://imgur.com/a/uI3CnA1 )
Anyway. I chatted with him a bit. I suggested some filaments. And he disclosed he was from Iran.
That's when I learned of some crazy shit.
He told me he couldn't get the filament because it's no one will ship filament to Iran except some sellers in China.
1 roll of filament ($25) is almost equivalent to a Full months income there for most people.
He said he had some off brand Chinese printer because no one else would ship him one.
And that the U.S bans other countries from doing business with Iran.
I asked him about how he learned his 3d skills. Said he was a medical device engineer as his day job. Said he often worked 12 hr shifts.
He made way more designing his 3d art models and selling the model files. He has a patreon like a lot of designers. So he makes like $700 USD a month through that, which is way more than he could make as a medical engineer in Iran.
He also told me no one in Iran is allowed to use PayPal. So it's been hard to sell his art internationally.
He was married and had a kid.
A few months ago his Instagram was deleted.
I don't know what happened.
I don't know if he and his family are okay.
I don't know anything else.
I worry about him all the time. He's just some artist. You know? Just like anyone else. Just trying to survive and give the world his art. And idk. I just think about how fucked all this is.

Is America Great already?

Is Trump & Friends richer?

Step 1: Remove EV Tax Credit Step 2: Spike Oil Prices Step 3: Put extra tax on EVs
Now you make people get EVs AND pay you for the pleasure. Extra points if you invest your stocks right to capitalize on both the spike in oil and the raised demand of EVs! So much winning! (But not for the Average American)
My go-to response when my more conservative relatives complain about the cost of anything is "are we great again yet?"
They don't complain around me anymore, which means they've internalized my response by now
Makes sense if you're being paid off by the people who sell oil. High oil prices is good if you sell oil.
And fucked all AI and chip related businesses because Ukraine and the middle east are the main sources of helium.
They also made China angry... Lithium for batteries, rare earth for magnets and optics.
Any other way to kick your own balls?

The guy is used to failing upward and has now reached the highest position. There is no failing upward from being POTUS.

I think this Trump guy is playing for the wrong team.
replies:
You guys really are winning. :)

And all his buddies made huge trades on oil futures just a couple days ago
