Idk I kind of think trump was put in place by feds... Like the way America overthrows other places.

Fed funds these tech companies. They basically have used them for backdoor surveillance and it seems this whole coup is partly built for them to come out of the dark and start using the tech outright. Like a new lifestyle being put in place of surveillance and AI, they knew people wouldn't be down for that so they need to make situations to put it in place. they have a fall guy - trump. And Epstein was the fall guy for their extortion game to get rich people to do what they want.

At this point I think it's probably naive to think America has the back of genuine humanity, and to assume they are looking out for the common person's well-being is a bad idea.

I think you are attributing a lot of forethought and planning to this shitshow that isn't thereย
