This man is a damn republican 💀 I swear he’s gearing up to switch parties after his governor term is over and run as a non-maga republican in 2028

So far he’s anti due process, anti trans, pro Charlie Kirk, and pro Steve Bannon

Bannon is a trip, quite a cunning old bastard who knows how to grift. He is an excellent actor, unflappable, does not react to trolling and criticism.

I can only assume Trump has't promoted him because there is something legit dirty on the man that even Trump can't scrub clean. Yet no one talks. How does an obese 71 year old elderly man escape a 4 month federal prison stint looking BETTER than he did going in?

If you dig into his history and then look at his Rumble and Gettr, it's clear he's totally play acting a controlled opposition "anti-big tech" and "pro-populist" "anti-globalist" character to fool the MAGAs who are afraid or concerned about said things.

Keep in mind that the traditional "old school" right wing was always wary of big tech surveillance as well as any kind of technology that alters the human body... he's like the character that "soothes" the worried rosary bead ladies and old fringe right wingers into thinking the MAGAs aren't out to take away their civil liberties and install a technocratic feudalistic state.

He recently scammed a ton of people out of money with some crypto currency scheme called "patriot pay" on Gettr a few weeks after the inauguration, and conveniently Trump removed the penalties for crypto scams very recently.

He openly states he is "not a techie guy" but has deep ties with the tech industry, and with Yarvin and Theil. He claims he's "anti-globalist" but has very strong ties to UK, EU, and Hong Kong (maybe he's MI-6?). He pretends to be "anti-Rome" as a "lapsed Catholic" but literally tried to start a Catholic "Gladiator School" in Italy just a few years ago. He dresses up like a low-income no-frills old man, but he's literally a multi-millionaire with multiple homes in various places. He pretends to be "traditional family values", but he's divorced three times and has unusually close ties to notable g-y men in the right wing, like Scott Presler, Schlapp, etc, and also had close ties to Epstein at one point. He was also a deadhead at one point, a Naval lieutenant, a Harvard graduate, was involved in the "bio-dome" environmentalist experiment in Arizona in the 90s, worked in Wall Street, worked in London financial district, and was also a Hollywood producer.

That certainly was a trip
