Ok, ez explain:
Nations are social structures with often a prime leader
Global Megacorps are demonic machine entities with no objective other than to engulf and consume to grow and it will replace any human at any position to continue performing its task. It is not checked or controlled by anybody and will kill and sabotage and destroy anything for even the littlest amount of growth until the planet is used up and humanity extinct and maybe not even stop then
The power the shareholders have on a company cannot be understated, and they get scared easily.
Trump has shareholders too. Russia, israel, the Epstein class…
The ONE billionaire CEO who didn’t go after kids.
(as far as we know.)
More so the smuggling of chips then the mistress. People are saying it’s the mistress to try and distract the public from the smuggling that makes up 20% of nvidia sales
Still, cheating on your spouse is more immoral than smuggling chips. And child rape is among the worse things a human can do to another.
But only one of those matters in this country and it wasn’t even a crime until a couple of years ago.
And that’s a fucking problem.
Ousting the CEO was a bottom dollar decision, not a morality decision. A corporation breaking US export control laws for ITAR technology has a much greater impact on investor bottom lines than any type of CEO sex scandal.
I’m not trying to say “won’t someone think of the children” here. I just think that’s worse than a honeypot.
And it certainly doesn’t help that powerful people are waiting for this bubble to pop.
So obviously a lot of fools that can’t connect the obvious dots are going to say ALLEGED pedophile. Ok, fine. However, he is an adjudicated rapist. So you can say that in the U.S. being an actual rapist doesn’t bring down a president and have it be 100% undeniably true.
The bar has been lowered. Severely. And the only way to raise that bar again is to bring justice to the rapist desecrating the office of the presidency.
I mean, we really ought to just never have a president again. Too much power concentrated in one place.
I think we’d be a lot better off if we had staggered nationwide elections for individual cabinet posts and let them run the country.
The US should have a leader who is technically the head of the country but whose powers are basically ceremonial. He should swear in the leader of the house, appoint certain high-ranking officials (on the consent of the house leader) and sign laws into effect. He could be the one sent to other countries as a representative of the USA, and he’d be welcomed with red carpets, etc. But, he couldn’t actually enter any negotiations or anything. He could even wear a military uniform to look extra cool.
In short, the US should have a King.
There are plenty of parliamentary republics (Germany, Italy, Austria, India, Ireland, Israel) where the president has mostly ceremonial and representative duties
No need to revert back to monarchy.
It’s safer though. These days “President” has a terrible connotation in the US. Freshen things up with a ceremonial king.
It’s not about having a mistress. Huang is successfully controlling the narrative which is the actual shocker. Do people even realize Elon fucking Musk… exists?! You know, as in being a CEO of SpaceX and Tesla? The guy has more children with affairs than he attends board meetings and nobody ever cared.
It was never about that at all for Huang but about illegally smuggling hardware into China, cozying up to Trump and the Democrats subsequently sweeping the midterms. He fears for a harsh sentence under a different president so he wants this to be over quickly and get a pardon. It’s blatantly obvious he controls the narrative to different affairs as soon as people start asking the actual questions and it’s painful to see people falling for it.
Is he though? Public opinion doesn’t really matter and he’s already been summoned to testify before Congress about it.
Pretty sure the people that actually matter here are all about the illegal Chinese smuggling bit and not the sex.
Summoned to testify. How often do any of these investigations result in people going to jail? He’s rich af, so odds are nothing will happen to him.
Well, Congress has no ability to charge anyone with a crime. That’s the DOJ. And Congress has referred charges to the DOJ several times.
None. It’s not a legitimate court. It’s a court of public opinion, at best.
We’ll see, but the original post is clearly not aware that the reason he’s in trouble is because he just got caught doing big big crimes with his mistress.
The sex stuff is fine, no one cares. It’s all the international crimes they were doing that is a no-no.
Yeah, that’s what I said?
He’s actually in trouble because of the criminal stuff. Not because some idiots online think it’s because of the affairs.
That was my point. Some dipshit twitter users aren’t actually affecting anything. He’s not “controlling the narrative” at all when he’s still facing a huge criminal shitstorm.
Because the circumstances of the CEO affair are inconvenient to the shareholders.
PS: Three! Three Hwang-mistresses so far, ah… ah… ah…
When it comes the Republican party here in the States, they only posture and clutch pearls only when a Democrat is scandalous. When Roy Moore and and Matt Gaetz were discovered preying on underage teens, they didn’t even blink.
The Democratic party cuts into its own when there are sex scandals, even when it’s grownup matters, like harassment of staffers or prior colleagues.
In general, company investors aren’t part of a cult. SpaceX and Tesla are another matter, but in general it’s about whether the company makes money or not.
Politics was already cultish. People would care more about the success of their team, rather than how their lives improved. When Trump came along the level of cultness went up a few notches.
Also, if it were just an affair it would be quickly forgotten. What matters is that it was an affair with a spy working for a government that’s an adversary to the US. And he’s the CEO of a company that is not allowed to export its most high-tech products to that adversary.
Ha, that’s just goofy.
See Epstein files for details. What we have seen (like flight logs) proves you wrong.
Biden didn’t do a thing.
(Bill Clinton, Dershowitz, Senator Glenn, and many others. Trump was just one of many)
All the other billionaires are shocked and sickened by his inexplicable attraction to age appropriate women
this happened in hungary too lol, orban and his gaggle of authoritarians tried to bury our then-candidate pm with a scandal that he’s been having consensual sex with an adult woman
Wait, like not even an affair?
nope, he got divorced like a year before his political debut and hasn’t been married since. they haven’t even accused him of cheating on another girlfriend or anything
The horror! I’d never say yes to consent!
lmao
So that’s where the bar is, apparently
Wasn’t she still younger, just not underage?
He is 63. She is 49. Doesn’t seem too problematic for me.
Not sure about the second affair.
i think the problematic element of the second affair was that she was his direct report, not an age gap either
The CEO answers to the shareholders.
A second-term president answers to no one.
It’s quite simple really: Trump has made billionaires a ton of money and his paedophilia has no ill effect on it. Huang’s affairs have cost billionaires a ton of money.
It’s never been about morals, just money
This.
Whatever you do, you should just follow the money.
Easy.
A CEO is accountable to shareholders. A president is accountable to no one (at least while in office, per SCOTUS).
Alternatively, the CEO affects investments; a president is the investment.
heads up that that user is a notorious post thief
Notorious B.I.G.
It’s not cheating on his wife that did in the CEO, it’s cheating on his wife with an alleged spy while also possibly being involved with chip smuggling.
They’re def not ousting him from some morality. He broke embargo with China you’re 100% right.
Also, shagging your subordinates is a big no no in US corporate governance.
The nono is having it plastered publically. If it’s an open secret within the industry, people in power don’t care because it doesn’t affect their power. It just becomes a lever to pull when you decide to oust someone from power.
It’s one of those things where it’s always going to happen tolerated to a degree, with enforcement being selective both as a pragmatic necessity and as political leverage. It’s kind of the western equivalent of tax evasion in China where there’s a whole industry that’s allowed to exist for wealthy people, the government knows about it, but they’ll only crack down if it gets too excessive or when someone steps out of line.
pfff, moralistic theatre
It’s just a little bit of treason! uWu…

The president doesn’t report to a board of directors
We the people were supposed to be the bord of directors then they made corporations people and the people consumers.
No, “We the People” were never in charge. They convinced you that we were making choices, while keeping up the appearance of democracy. Then they lied about it when the oligarchs overruled us. They’ve just stopped pretending to care what we think.
I mean, we have laws that would’ve removed and jailed him, but half of the senate decided they prefer fascism.
Jailed? I’m not a proponent of the death penalty, but Trump has done like seven different treasonous things. America executes people over smaller shit than J6 all the time.
The president is supposed to report to a 300M-member board of directors
Sadly, around half (give or take a few percent, depending on recent developments) of this board seems to be just as corrupted as their president.
Even these midterms still saw millions of people voting for a continuation of this clusterfuck of (financial, moral and legal) corruption. Trump really is just a symptom of a much larger amount of rot.
honestly, the crazy part to me was the amount of both parties suck propaganda. like yes, they do, but voting for the one that sucks less is still mathematically the best choice. but i think a lot of republican-aligned “centrists” who couldn’t bring themselves to vote for this mess were terrified that the dems would come out to vote and tried to stop that.
they do, it is just the board is corrupt as well.
Nearly 350m these days
Bingo. 6 of 10 had to agree in Jensen’s case. Impeaching Trump takes 285 of 535 people agreeing.
Yeah he does, it’s called the Senate.
This is an interesting analogy. A good corporate board would be vetting the C-suite similar to how the Senate is supposed to vet cabinet appointments.
There are definitely corporate boards (and senators) that fail to hold CEOs (and presidents) accountable.
