OT: American Politics

They’ll algo Colbert and Krugman out of existence.

Krugman maybe because he'll pretty happily go to a small, quiet corner of the internet and do wonkish stuff for those of us who care (though, his newsletter is pretty fucking prolific, he sends out emails daily). Colbert though? If he decides that he wants attention, I don't think the almighty algo is going to be able to stop him. If he wanted to, he could have a top 5 podcast within a month of leaving TV.

Trump administration imposes limits on Mexican flights and threatens Delta alliance in trade dispute​

 



Accurate.

Makes me think of the MAGA election truthers who thought the election must be rigged, because where were all the people passionately waving Biden flags, wearing Biden gear and road-tripping around to endless Biden rallies?

Just does not compute that they’re the weird ones, and that it’s not normal for a functional adult to have an unconditional, all-encompassing and almost religious devotion for their preferred political candidate, and to make that a cornerstone of their entire personality.
 
lol

Actual trade deals take ~18 months to negotiate by teams of people who know what the fuck they are doing.

All of these tech bros and finance Muppets around Trump think that they're uniquely qualified to do everything better than anyone else. It's a weird side effect of the American psyche. If I can make money and making money is hard, I can do anything.
