Assiduous readers will know that Walt is a hyuge fan of President Donald J. Trump. Hyuge. No-one else could have done what he did in the last decade, i.e. turn American politics upside down and give the conservative, America first movement new life. Good on yer, sir!
However... as I suggested in "As Georgia goes, so goes the nation" (WWW 7/12/22), it may be time for The Donald to throw his hat out of the ring and make way for a Republican candidate who can (without abandoning conservative principles) bring in some of the Democrats and independents [like Krysten Sinema! Ed.] who are fed up with Brandon's new, woke America.
Having declared his candidacy for reelection in 2024, the chances of President Trump withdrawing appear to be slim and none. Especially today, now that he has launched his own exclusive digital trading cards.Announcing his latest self-promotion, Mr Trump wrote, "These limited edition cards feature amazing ART of my Life & Career!" He likened the cards -- which are also NFTs (non-fungible tokens) to baseball cards
There are 45 different cards currently available [or not. Ed.], a nod to The Donald's tenure as "#45" -- the 45th president of the Excited States of America. The cards include depictions of Mr Trump as a cowboy, and giving the raised fist salute in front of Mount Rushmore.
Earlier this week, President Trump posted a 15-second video in which he said, "America needs a superhero." And there he is, in full Captain America regalia, complete with a "T" on his manly chest. On the official Collect Trump Cards website, Mr Trump refers to himself as "hopefully your favorite president of all time; better than Lincoln; better than Washington."
Well... "hopefully" says all ye know and all ye need to know. Seems to Walt that President Trump really believes his own stuff, the way a WWE does when he steps into the squared circle. It's good to believe in yourself, but better not to delude yourself.
Note from Ed.: Walt uses the term (NFT) as if we all know what it means. For those who don't, a non-fungible token is a unique digital identifier that cannot be copied, substituted, or subdivided, that is recorded in a blockchain, and that is used to certify authenticity and ownership. The ownership of an NFT is recorded in the blockchain and can be transferred by the owner, allowing NFTs to be sold and traded. NFTs can be created by anybody, and require few or no coding skills to create. NFTs typically contain references to digital files such as photos, videos, and audio. Because NFTs are uniquely identifiable assets, they differ from cryptocurrencies, which are fungible. Got it? You're welcome.
