coming up on this episode of the roundtable.

I love my favorite new conspiracy theory on the left.

I forget who did this the other day,

but it was in response to the Elon Tucker interview

and it was, this is you line and and uh

Trump have reached an agreement Trump just wants to be the figure had the

front man and then this is Elon's way of running the government even though he's not a natural-born citizen.

Yeah, well, this is sort of an underlying structural thing that we haven't really touched

on, although we talked about before in the podcast, that like, is Elon already more powerful than the president of the United States?

Like do the tech guys kind of run the world like unclear and every time they're called

before Congress you have this crazy confrontation between sort of these people is that they're beaming back from the future where they are the industrial masters of the universe and they're talking to like

pre-industrial wig-wearing barristers or like cavemen they're like you so what

is you say you have a finster like what is this fin star of which you speak and there is a way in which Titans and captains of

mass supposed masters of the world and kings of the nations now petition the tech guys for their support and protection rather than the other way around.

Although there's still a lot that the government can do to make life harder easier for the tech guys. Oh, uh, no. Welcome everyone once again to the roundtable the
