Hi all at TWhbP, it’s been a minute. I try to stay a-political on this blog but I’m going to an “Elbow’s Up” rally being held at Nathan Philip Square in Toronto today and decided I should have some relevant content while I’m flying my sign. This is a pro-Canada sit-in, and the main adversary and reasoning behind this protest is one Cheeto Mussolini (as I like to call him, name calling is bad but he started it). The sit-in/rally/protest/whatever you want to call it should be pretty big as there’s been lots of sabre rattling coming from the south as it relates to Canada’s sovereignty and livelihoods of our citizens by one commander-in-chief and his sycophants. This is on the back of a rally held in Ottawa last week .
I didn’t know what type of article I wanted to write, but have found threads on Reddit relating to asking ChatGPT (Grok, etc. too) what a compromised US president might due, notably if s/he were a Russian asset. This post on Reddit highlights a bit, I’ll quote the conclusion but please read the rest: https://www.reddit.com/r/ActiveMeasures/comments/1j4xnam/chat_gpt_on_whether_trump_is_a_russian_asset/ .
Conclusion: Is Trump a Russian Asset?
• If we define a compromised asset as someone who knowingly or unknowingly acts in ways that benefit a foreign power due to leverage, financial ties, or ideological alignment, then the evidence overwhelmingly supports the idea that Trump is compromised.
• The sheer pattern of behavior, financial entanglements, and intelligence reports suggests that Trump has long been cultivated by Russian interests and has acted in ways that align with their goals—whether or not he is consciously aware of it.
Final Thoughts: If Trump Were a Russian Asset, What Would He Be Doing Differently?
Honestly? Nothing.
His entire political career—from the 1987 trip to 2024—has aligned with Russian interests. Whether he’s a knowing agent or just deeply compromised, the effect is the same. Final Estimate: 85-90%
• If being a compromised asset includes financial leverage, ideological manipulation, or unknowingly acting in a way that benefits a foreign power, then 85-90% is a reasonable estimate. But in practical terms, it doesn’t matter whether he’s witting or unwitting—his actions have consistently aligned with Russian interests for nearly 40 years. That’s beyond coincidence.”
Pretty damning to me, so I setup my local LLM setup to ask Qwen 2.5 32B what’s going on if we were to theoretically saw a Russian puppet as the leader of the free world.
There are other such threads on Reddit, but decided to take Qwen 2.5:32B (another blogpost about how to setup Qwen can be found here) and ChatGPT for a spin myself and see what sort of logic puzzles we can deduce. It takes a bit of tinfoil to understand this all, but by my count we’re about 5 out of 7 steps into the Butterfly Revolution, with last 2 steps well underway. This is lead by techno and Christo-fascists who want to reinvent society in their image. Good luck with that bros, people are gonna be pissed.
I asked Qwen if I could ask it's analysis of the Reddit post linked earlier and this was it's output:
FROM QWEN 2.5:32B
The analysis provided by the other commenter and attributed to ChatGPT presents a detailed and concerning narrative about potential connections between Donald Trump and Russia. Here are some key points from the analysis:
Key Points:
Shift in Political Views Post-1987 Moscow Trip:
- After meeting with Kremlin officials and staying at a KGB-monitored suite, Trump's political views shifted to align more closely with Soviet interests.
Financial Entanglements:
- Russian oligarchs overpaid for Trump’s properties, which is considered a common money laundering technique.
- Deutsche Bank, his primary lender, reportedly had loans backed by the Russian state-owned VTB Bank.
Lack of Criticism Towards Putin:
- Despite numerous hostile actions by Russia (e.g., election interference), Trump often dismissed or downplayed these actions and attacked NATO and U.S. allies instead.
Republican Party Alignment with Russia:
- The GOP under Trump has adopted pro-Russia stances, such as Rand Paul delivering letters from Trump to Putin.
Russian Influence in the RNC/DNC Hacks:
- Russian hacking focused on releasing DNC emails rather than RNC ones, suggesting possible leverage over the GOP.
Analysis and Probability Estimate:
- The analysis concludes with a probability of 85-90% that Trump is a compromised Russian asset.
- It defines a compromised asset as someone who acts in ways beneficial to a foreign power due to financial ties, ideological alignment, or blackmail.
Critiques and Considerations:
Evidence and Sources:
- The analysis relies heavily on circumstantial evidence and broad patterns of behavior rather than concrete proof of Trump's intentions.
- There is no mention of specific sources or intelligence reports, making it difficult to independently verify the claims.
Motivations and Intentions:
- The narrative does not explore alternative explanations for why Trump might have taken certain actions that benefit Russia (e.g., personal financial gain, ideological beliefs).
Impact on Policy:
- While there are significant correlations between Trump's policies and Russian interests, it is essential to distinguish between intentional alignment and coincidence.
Legal and Ethical Implications:
- If the claims were true, this would have severe implications for national security and governance.
Context and Broader Political Landscape:
- The analysis does not consider broader political contexts or the influence of other actors who might benefit from Trump's policies.
Conclusion:
While the narrative is compelling and raises serious questions about potential foreign interference in U.S. politics, it lacks definitive proof. To substantiate such claims, more rigorous evidence and a thorough investigation would be necessary. The analysis provided by ChatGPT serves as an interpretation based on available information but should not be taken at face value without further corroboration.
Would you like to delve deeper into any specific aspect of this analysis or consider other viewpoints?
END: FROM QWEN 2.5:32B
So nothing conclusive, but there's tidbits littering the nets to help you make your own opinion. If you use this sort of lens as to why a sitting president does the things he's doing to sow chaos, then it starts to resolve some insights into his behaviour. I question why the other adults in the room are letting him have his way, but I did mention Christo and techno-fascists... Fascists love other fascists. They're looking to create a new world order, and I for one will ensure my voice is heard and if I can't maintain it, I'm fleeing the country.

I've read that "low engagement, low information" voters in the USA used to be a toss-up, perhaps leaning very slightly progressive, but with the advent of oligarchical / authoritarian controlled, low-intelligence social media (aka TikTok, Twitter), those same people have been indoctrinated to vote fairly right-wing by default. Which is a crazy shift. It used to be the formula for progressive parties was, if we can get people out to the polls, we win. Now they have to be a bit more selective. Education is actually fairly key to maintaining a democratic system. Which speaks volumes to why Trump wants to dismantle the Department of Education.
