Bonefish, Whomever it is they are very good at it. No "they" aren't. Far from it. For the moment, let's assume that there is indeed a "man behind the curtain" controlling everything. The "man behind the curtain" had the hapless Brandon up there on the podium for 3.5 years. The "man behind the curtain" tried to gaslight the public into thinking that Brandon was more than capable of running the nation and leading the free world. That got demolished during the first debate. The "man behind the curtain" tried to revise history with "critical race theory" and that "1619 Project," only to run into stiff opposition from the public who saw through the B.S. The "man behind the curtain" tried to create Woke Inc. with the notion that DEI is profitable. The results over the past several years has been disastrous for corporate bottom lines, especially Budweiser. The "man behind the curtain" tried to kill fracking and oil production, only to realize that the free world still runs on fossil fuels. The "man behind the curtain" tried to push EV mandates only to find that customer demand didn't catch up to his wishes. The "man behind the curtain" thought that BLM was his opportunity to push "restorative justice" through his Soros-supported D.A.s all across the nation, only to find that even liberal wackadoodle San Francisco recalled theirs. The "man behind the curtain" tried to push woke identity politics into academia, only to produce a very vocal and violent group of college students who are LARPing as Hamas terrorists. "Queers for Palestine" should be proof of that failure. Now the "man behind the curtain" is directing his chosen champion, a woman who is going to make the White House smell like curry (according to Trump's mistress), to triangulate and become more politically moderate. It might work, it might not. So far, it seems to be working, but only because said "curry woman's" opponent is completely and utterly out of his fuckin' mind. So please, don't tell me that the "man behind the curtain" is oh-so-smart and oh-so-good at what he is doing, because I certainly don't see it. Tenchusatsu
