I was a couple of days without news and this is what happened to me. I imagined that Elon Musk became President of the United States of Trump

December 19, 2024

I was a couple of days without the news, and this is what happened to me. For a moment, I thought everything was okay and going relatively well in the world. Nothing was perfect and nothing had to be. Perfection is a fiction of human imagination. Perfection doesn't exist in the real world and doesn't have to exist. Perfection is an innocent ideal exploited for commercial, religious, and political gain. 

Without the news contrasting reality with an idealistic religious perfection, I was content with the beautiful imperfect world of which I am part of. I was not worried about things outside of my purview or outside of my control. Shit happens and will continue to happen such is life. Everything felt okay.

People around me seemed like normal human beings with ups and downs, successes and failures, victories and defeats. Everything seemed appropriately balanced. The happily imperfect world was an interesting place; quite fun and delightful if you ask me. I was living the moment, which included a pleasant flow of past memories and future dreams. Nothing was utterly scary. Everything was alright. 

Along came the news 

Then, different people told me about news and all the "problems" going on. These were issues and situations completely outside of their control. For the most part, they were all happening many miles away and were being influenced by special interests billions of dollars away from their reach. I was tempted to ask them why they were so worried and what they thought their worries would solve. I decided to leave them alone and continue in my own world. 

Upon getting back online and checking trending news and popular headlines, I realized why some people were tricked into being concerned. The news articles were written to get attention and activate the reptilian fight-or-flight mode in the primate brains. 

Attention is money. 

Once the scary headlines and scary newscasters get your attention, they can sell eyeball metrics to advertisers. The fear-mongering by commercial newsmakers has one main purpose, to grab attention and sell advertising. The fear-mongering by business entrepreneurs has a main purpose, to make you buy their products and services as either direct or proxy solutions to the problems causing the fears. The fear-mongering by politicians and political entrepreneurs has the main purpose of convincing you to empower them to make changes.

The Second Coming of Trump

It was years ago when I realized all this about the news and the marketers of scary problems. Luckily, it was well before the first coming of Trump. If you recall, the sky was falling in the summer and fall of 2016. The experts and pundits in the commercial news outlets were in violent agreement. Electing Donald Trump would destroy the economy. Financial markets would collapse. The Trumpcallypsis was near.

We're now over 8 years later, very close to the Second Coming of Trump. The sky didn't fall under Trump. The economy thrived. Financial markets did very well. Guess what? The same happened under Biden. The sky didn't fall. The economy did super well. Financial markets did super well. 

Tinkering the Constitution 

The sky didn't fall under Trump or Biden for many reasons. An important one is the Constitution. So long as we have our constitution, we are theoretically protected by a system of checks and balances. When power is divided or distributed between different parties, there is a tug of war that paradoxically keeps things in check and in proper balance. 

Without a constitution or under a different one, the sky will not fall, but it may rain on your parade. Buy an umbrella, a raincoat, and rubber boots. Our current Constitution is not convenient for Trump and Elon Musk. The Constitution limits the terms that Trump can serve in office. The Constitution limits the ability of Elon Musk, a South African immigrant, to become President of the United States. 

Our Prediction

Within the next months, you will hear Trump and his supporters argue in favor a Constituonal amendment. The first one will be to test the waters on a topic where most Americans will agree, which is the racist idea of ending birther rights. Back when the Constitution was amended to safeguard birhter rights, the amendment protected white babies in overwhelming proportions. It's a different story now. 

A Constition amendment to end birhter rights is coming. Following that successful amendments other attempts will come to change the limit on Presidential terms and the limitation that only natural born citizens can be Presidents. This is because Trump wants to be President for life. This is because Elon Musk wants to be the first immigrant President of the United States of Trump.
