Neuralink’s Elon Musk, Palantir’s Peter Thiel, and many of the ‘PayPal Mafiosos’ now support Donald Trump for President. This could be a double-edged sword…
During a recent appearance on OAN, Director of Research at the Government Accountability Institute Seams Bruner highlighted an interesting new shift in politics: technocrats for Trump.
“I know that they’re controversial figures. They’re celebrated by our side as these white knights, let’s say Elon Musk, for example, Peter Thiel of Palantir. They’re all backing Trump now,” Bruner told host Chanel Rion. “There’s several more in this PayPal mafia who seem to be wanting to ride the Trump train to technocracy.

“If you’re a crypto fan, Donald Trump was just at this Bitcoin conference and said on day one he will fire SEC Chair Gary Gensler. And that’s a very welcome move. This guy has been totally corrupt,” Bruner added.
Bruner was referring to Trump’s recent appearance at the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, TN earlier this month.
“On day one, I will fire Gary Gensler and appoint a new SEC chairman,” Trump said to a fired-up crowd. “I didn’t know he was that unpopular,” Trump remarked, before doubling down: “Let me say it again. On day one, I will fire Gary Gensler.”
