   “Before becoming a Trump donor and adviser, Bessent donated to various Democratic causes in the early 2000s, notably Al Gore’s presidential run. He also worked for George Soros, a major supporter of Democrats. Bessent had an influential role in Soros’ London operations, including his famous 1992 bet against the pound, which generated huge profits on 'Black Wednesday,' when the pound was de-linked from European currencies.”

     I don't understand why people think this Trump will be any different. He's going to drain the swamp again and fill it with people from the other part of the same swamp ... just like last time .. Larry Fink anybody?!

     I think most are on Hopium, but cognitive dissonance works too ... it's kinda the generic hopium.

     Getting the insiders out?

     Bessent is a Yalie, a Rockefeller trustee, a Counsel on Foreign Relations member, a Soros acolyte up to 2015. His own hedge fund was heavily financed by Soros himself & staffed mainly with Soros alumni.

     Sounds more like "meet the new boss, same as the old boss" to me.
