Art of the deal..

I hate it it but i feel a little sorry when laughably evil people fuck up their evil schemes this badly. and it happens a lot.
Fuck up their schemes? Putin's scheme to wreck US hegemony is going insanely well and would've been going even better if he hadn't greedily, groundlessly invaded Ukraine. Trump's plan to abuse the presidency for personal gain seems to be doing well too.
The us hegemony getting wrecked is a good thing tho
Why do US billionaires accept the end of the hegemony? Trump can't act against their plans or he would be impeached.
Like a tick that has grown fat off of its host body, they believe they don't need countries anymore.
A nice thought but they won't be that stupid.
are you sure?
It's enough that 10 billionaires understand the development to convince the rest.
They think about power all day long. They will notice if they lose it.
they surely will. That doesn't mean they're sharp enough to properly strategize. IMO when you have lots of money, you don't really have to think as much, because it's kust that more easier to breed money when you already have so much. So when the crisis finally comes, you won't be able to properly analyze the situation.
Case in point — corpos like Microsoft and Ubisoft.

Warren Buffett says no. To invest billions is more difficult because high growths opportunities with high margins rarely exist in that price range.

Are they stupid or do they optimize for different constraints? MS could have introduced AI for surveillance and not for growth.

I can't disprove this. However I think that some are intelligent enough and with billions at their disposal they could make themselves heard.

Yes, you won't be able to multiply your money. But once you have millions or billions to spare, it's pretty easy to invest them in such a way that the returns will cover more than you spend on a daily basis at least. This easily develops a certain sense of carelessness.

Ubisoft stock prices plummeted down and nearing the historical minimum.
Microsoft's trust in ai is akin walking a bridge across a chasm, while building the said bridge on the go. Considering that linux share actively grows in later years, they're doing a bad job with that bridge. EUs latest concerns about US and reliance on the US technologies don't help either.
The quality of their product also depleeted, thanks to the reliance on aformentioned ai hype train, and usage of inapropriate technologies to build their OS companents (i.e. using react native for the start menu). All of that tops of with dubious investments, be it OpenAI, or bying Activision a few years prior. Not even mentioning the smaller game studios like Tango Gameworks that they bought only to close off immediately. Everything listed can be summarized as poor management decisions.
You might argue that they're rich enough to spare a billion or two on such mistakes, but those mistaces appear to be systematic, rather than one-offs. To me it seems like a start of a slow and very painful fall.

Last I checked hes still robbing the Treasury blind and pardoning his friends, which is all he ever cared about
Ever day I hope this stupid shitty motherfucker kills himself
Unfortunately he's only the symptom, not the disease.
People keep saying this, but we go to pretty extreme lengths to remove severe symptoms.
Username checks out.

Unfortunately you'll have to make do with this stupid motherfucker shitting himself.

You can die talking a shit and Trump's health is exactly the type to do that.
Personal holiday when he does
Gonna get absolutely wasted of my gourd when the headline breaks.
....Why would you want to poison yourself when the good news comes in??? Personally, the news would make me want to live longer on this planet if he were to die. Hopefully in a federal prison and of natural causes.
True, true. Maybe I'll organize a Discord party and play load of GMod or GTA Online with my friends, my Spotify playlist is locked and loaded too, the drunkenness will be merely a part of the bigger celebration (though tbh I don't really drink alcohol anyway, 1 Vodka Cruiser at most)

He's way to narcissistic but one can dream
There are two possible readings of your message.
The first one is that he literally commits suicide.
The second one is that the general public is told that he committed suicide, but everyone knows that it's not true
If only he really had Downs, things would be much better.
That face...
Isn't that the Hillary Clinton wax statue that had to be turned into a pumpkin on short notice?
No it's the Barack Obama backup clone who escaped and shit in all of 45's pants
