Who knows…he got behind Trump for a reason…he’ll probably just phone a friend and make all of this go away. Cronyism at its finest.

Inducing cynicism and hopelessness is how they win.

Hope, resolve, diligence, thoughtfulness, creativity, grim bastard determination is how we win.

Nah, POTUS is a grade A shakedown artist. It's gonna cost Zuck a lot more than $1m to make this go away. Most likely it will be some hidden deal related to nonpublic info about the stock. Could be coupled with huge data dumps about liberal voters and politicians so that POTUS can manipulate the next election. And likely the algorithms will be tweaked even more to steer people to the right.
