China should hurt Trump where it matters by going after his sugar daddies (and mommies)
Trump just imposed additional tariffs on China. He seems to be acting with impunity. Can China do something to Trump where it hurts?
I think the Chinese Communist Party certainly can. Let’s take off the gloves and have some fun. Here is my suggestion – CCP should go after Trump’s sugar daddies and mommy to let him know who the real boss is.
The US is a plutocracy, and presidents are bought and paid for by the oligarchs through their campaign contributions, super PACs, and other dark money funnels. They are the real boss.
Trump is no different. He is a kept man. In fact, he has the most and the biggest of all political sugar daddies (and mommy) in the history of the world. Some of them happen to be at the mercy of the CCP – Elon Musk, Jeff Yass, and Miriam Edelson.
It’s public knowledge that Elon Musk gave over $200 million to Trump’s campaign and owns the real estate conman and sassy reality show host. Most of Elon Musk’s wealth is in his ownership of Tesla, which happens to make over 50% of its cars in China and counts China as its second largest market. China can squeeze Musk a bit by shutting down Tesla China and liquidate a hundred billion from his net worth. A job at DOGE probably is not going to be worth that much. So I am pretty sure Musk will have a nice little chat with his personal property in the white house.
Jeff Yass, a much less known character, is in fact worth some $50 billion. A Jew, Jeff Yass owes most of his worth to his investment in ByteDance, the Chinese corporate parent of TikTok. Open Secrets reported Jeff Yass gave $96 million to Trump and other Republican causes in 2024 (now you understand why Trump made the U turn on TikTok), making Yass the largest donor until Musk and Miriam Edelson (more on her later) cut even bigger checks for the orange man.
CCP can refuse to sell TikTok or ask it to pull out of the US, vaporizing most of Yass’ fortune. Given the Jewish love for money, it is easy to imagine he will be coming to the white house with a machete for undelivered promise. Trump cannot make Mexico to pay for the wall but Yass will find a way for Trump to pay up.
Next, we come to the afore-mentioned widow of dead Jew Sheldon Edelson. She was known to have given Trump $150 million to help the genociders in Israel annex Gaza and West Bank in the wet dream of building the Eretz Israel (Muhammad bin Salman be aware, Saudi Abria is next as you are occupying a big chunk of the land promised to Israel by god the realtor. You may need a bone-saw to dismember Bibi in your next meet-and-greet for the safety of the sheiks). The now dead Jew Sheldon Edelson generously gave Trump $100 million in his first journey to the white house. That is payment for his trouble to recognize Jerusalem as jew capital. The bond is deep here.
Unfortunately for the Edelson family, their fortune is mostly under the mercy of the CCP again. Sands Vegas is a nothing burger next to Sands Macau which is where real money is made by the casino bros. When CCP decides to shut down Sands Macau for endangering national security, Miriam Edelson will have to move in with Trump in the white house to avoid becoming “unhoused”. I am not sure even Trump has the appetite for the old crow sleeping in the Lincoln room. Don’t even ask what Melania would think.
Since we are all such grown-ups, Mr. Trump, the ball is in your court and do you worst please.
"The US has been reduced to the Friday night poker player, playing with other people's money, resources, and futures in a game of winner-takes-all. It has played too late into the night and is now drunken and bleary-eyed."
I wish I were 20 years younger as I would love to visit China. It is so great to hear of its many successes as the utterly tragic intransigent West is hell bent on war and self destruction. While Asia and Russia have been pursuing peace and progress, the West has squandered its wealth and good will on wars and corruptions.
Nice to see you picking up on the Jew connection!
I hope Musk reads Substack! Actually Tesla sales in China seem to be falling, the streets are full of BYD, Geely, Zeekr etc with their green plates now. BYD is fast outselling Tesla.
What you say is true about Macau of course. I frequently travel by ferry between Shenzhen and Hong Kong. When I go to the queue in either - well there is never a queue for my trips - there will always be a horde, sometimes a hundred of so, mainly youngish people, doing a day trip to Macau, some no doubt for the prostitution, the other thriving industry that nobody mentions: Macau is the only place in China where full on gambling is legal (you can bet on the horses in Hong Kong) and makes Macau a very rich, dirty little enclave. The first Substack piece I wrote last year - Four Chinese Women - described in part its effect on the marriages on two of my wife's relatives: a cousin's led to divorce when the husband's gambling debts passed 1,000,000 RMB, and the other a similar amount led to the suicide of her brother.
It's way past time the CPC cleaned it up and incidentally shut Adelson down.
