#683 Surely Trump cant be that stupid to be duped twice? (preview)
TODAY: We uncover and discuss a different type of racism dividing the working class: Truck Driver Supremacy, as Alex shares an annoying argument with a Bezos-boosting Teamster who insists on making the union smaller. ALSO: Trump has an "impressive" 3-hour meeting with Bill Gates, leading many Trump supporters to go "Huh?" Was Trump holding this meeting against his will? Was the meeting a ploy to get Bill Gates' confession on tape? Either way Trump probably didn't like it.

It's also just funny to be like, you know what, I love Jeff Bezos, and I'm like, I don't.
And he's like, oh yeah, well you love Bill Gates.
And it's like, I don't.
But you know who does?
Donald Trump, who worked with Bill Gates to do Warp.
Operation Warp Speed for the vaccine the first time, and with whom Bill Gates just met and had a three-hour meeting with Donald Trump.
This is reporting from Colin Rugg on X, who's a Republican guy.
Just in, Bill Gates says he was very impressed by Trump during their three-hour dinner together.
Everyone is falling in line, period.
Interesting, period.
Very interesting.
So I better finish the rest of this.
I just love that response because Bill Gates, one of the biggest targets for QAnon and just the broader MAGA movement, one of the celebrity activists that they've fucking hyper-focused all their anger on meeting with Donald Trump.
The best response, the most common response...
Was interesting.
Hmm.
Was both interesting and everyone is falling in line.
Hmm.
They've bent the knee.
These billionaires, they've realized where their bread is buttered.
It's like, yeah, they have.
This is, I think, the number one thinking man right-wing response to it is...
Wow, how the tables have turned.
Now they have to grovel to Trump.
It's like, these billionaires, they use the state to benefit them.
They don't really care about who's...
He didn't decide to do this because it's Trump.
No, I think Trump had called Bill Gates and said, we need a meeting now.
You need to end the woke assault on America.
We need a ceasefire right fucking now.
And Bill Gates knew that he wasn't messing around.
And so he said, okay.
Is it okay, sir?
I'm calling my drones off.
Okay, Mr. President.
I'll stop.
I'm calling off my drones that do voice training into populated Republican neighborhoods.
Gates said he and the president-elect had a very intriguing conversation about global health.
Isn't this just wonderful, guys?
Aren't we all so happy about this?
Quote, Trump was energized and looking forward to helping to drive innovation.
You know, I was frankly impressed with how well he showed.
A lot of interest in the issues I brought up.
I was frankly impressed with how well he liked my ideas.
That was impressive to me.
Yeah, it was pretty cool.
Usually, I wouldn't expect him to like this stuff, but he liked it.
I know he called me in for this, but he seems to be liking this.
Yeah, it's not every day you meet somebody with such good taste in bio-evolutionary innovation.
You know, and just a man of culture.
So this is great.
I was just like, I sent this.
I sent this.
You better fucking believe I sent this back to Frank.
I was like, oh, look.
What's up, man?
It's a big club and you aren't in it, bro.
Sorry.
There were some really good coping responses to this, though, because the Spectator Index says Bill Gates says he was very impressed by Trump during a three-hour dinner between the two.
Zibnik Drab says, I am sure the feeling was not mutual.
Donald Trump's not impressed.
Trump probably made sure his food wasn't that hot.
Yeah.
Sat him in a slightly smaller chair than he was used to.
He knows that Bill Gates hates pickles, but made sure that McDonald's orders still had pickles on it.
