    I was well aware charity money went towards funding and organizing protests.

    What specific benefit are people getting for showing up to protests? Your theory still lacks any specificity beyond "Warren Buffet gives money to a charity that then gives money to activist protest groups - PROTEST-FOR-PAY SCHEME EXPOSED!"
    Oh cool, protest funding conspiracies. Who's funding the protests?

    I gave you this link already and showed you just one "member".

    You think I need to hand hold you to the finish line for you to admit (seems you already have) that paid protesters possibly exist and if Trump wins, the money could simply go away since much of the pay is quite likely based on desire to change the political landscape?

    I feel like I'm arguing with a re now.

    Paid protesters possibly exist the same way the flying spaghetti monster and unicorns might possibly exist. Glad you concede you've only proven the possibility of a conspiracy.

    To your main point - the money would go away if Biden won too (especially since that's the outcome said protest money is seemingly pointing towards), so you still haven't explained how Trump winning a 2nd term puts an end to protests more quickly and efficiently than Biden winning would.

    Because if Biden wins the ROI was realized meaning more ROI if more investment. Biden isn't immune to far left pressure either.

    Since when? He and Mika propped him up in 2016 as their own.

    This is your cake TSA.

    Just want to make sure I understand this -

    I asked why re-electing Trump would end protests while electing Biden wouldn't, and you said because protest-for-pay schemes (which may or may not exist) would fold up shop if Trump won (even though Trump winning would give the alleged protest financiers a political objective that still needs to be achieved) while they would continue financing protests if Biden won because the ROI on their pay-for-protesting conspiracy paid off thus they would feel inclined to continue protesting to push Biden even further to the left.

    Did I get that right?

    I didn't say it would. I don't think it will. If it did, I offered a possible reason.

    Trump isn't running again in 2024.

    Surely you understand ROI.

    If Biden wins, the protests can be said to have achieved the goal, and so subsequent goals (face it, no one is ever content) can be funded and perhaps Biden caves, perhaps he doesn't. It would be known Trump didn't cave, and he won regardless. Not saying they would just give up, but some donors would find better use for their money, like actual social programs and medical research.

    So was my post an accurate or inaccurate summary of what you're saying?

    Why didn't he call the police instead of his buddy?

    If Buffet invests you can bet there's an ROI.

    I thought it was a donation

    How will Buffett reap the return on urban riots? You sort of glided over that.

    No, I didn't say the you added in parenthesis. My post can be quoted, no need to paraphrase if you want to approach it head on.

    If Biden wins, he will inherit biggest deficit ever.

    Really? You cannot see any way a guy worth almost 70 billion can make money based on who is in office? Odd, you seemed pretty keen to the concept with Trump and tax breaks for the rich.
