Along the way, Bob delivers another edition of “Bobservations,” featuring behind the scenes trivia, continuity oddities, production mistakes, timeline contradictions involving the Eugenics Wars, and connections to Strange New Worlds and The Wrath of Khan. 

Manipulation is simply Donald’s baseline. Markets, people, countries, wars, ceasefires, facts… everything becomes part of the game. From Truth Social posts that move billions in assets, to a meme coin that allows foreign nationals to buy access to the president, to suspicious trading surges just minutes before major announcements, the pattern is consistent, deliberate, and ongoing. The watchdog agencies that should be investigating have been gutted, while the media continues to call it chaos when it increasingly looks like a business model.Please send comments/questionsinfo@marytrumpmedia.comConsider visiting MaryTrump.org and subscribing to my Substack: The Good in Us
