John Paulson is backing Trump, former US president and candidate in the coming U.S. presidential elections scheduled to be held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024.
The lead-up to the US presidential elections is surreal and unprecedented.
Trump’s felon conviction, the first in history a former US president convicted for a felon, is having minimal impact on his campaign.
In sexually liberal cultures Trump’s conviction looks politicised.
So he has an extramarital affair, consensually bangs an adult porno star, then pays her to shut up and fiddles the books, probably hoping his wife doesn’t find out.
Is that the worst skeleton in the closet for a 77-year-old billionaire that his political enemies out with daggers could dig up?

Trump’s felon conviction will probably boost his election chances.
Meanwhile, the President’s son was convicted of three charges of purchasing a handgun while addicted to drugs and tax evasion.
If the offspring reflect their parents, then Biden’s son’s conviction could weigh on the President’s reelection chance, assuming those who cast the vote matter.
So John Paulson is backing Trump and is hosting a fundraiser for Donald Trump as the former president attempts to regain the White House, here’s what he told a Bloomberg News reporter during an interview at his $US110 million ($166 million) Palm Beach estate: “I think Trump did a phenomenal job in his first term as president.”
Paulson continued: “Pre-COVID, the economy was probably the strongest it has. That is not true, as economic red flags of ballooning deficit and debt were waving in 2019 with the economy propped up on easy money.
But in recent weeks, a growing number of billionaires have come out in support of the former president, including Blackstone co-founder Steve Schwarzman, whose $US41 billion net worth puts him among the 40 wealthiest people in the world; Citadel founder Ken Griffin; Oracle co-founder and chairman Larry Ellison; Cantor Fitzgerald chief executive Howard Lutnick; Continental Resources chairman Harold Hamm; and Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus.

JOHN PAULSON
John Paulson is backing Trump, and it is no secret why the wealthy like Trump
“I want lower taxes and fewer regulations.” The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which have disproportionately benefited the wealthy and big business while adding to the budget deficit, is due to expire in 2025. Whoever wins this year’s presidential election will decide whether to extend it.
John Paulson is backing Trump in what is already the most divisive and polarized election campaign in US history.
The left fears retribution if Trump is re-elected and is arming themselves.
Some believe the judiciary is already becoming politicised.
Would a rattled strong-arm Trump become a totalitarian dictator, imprisoning, or worse, political rivals?
A US civil war is not only worrying Russian political scientists, it is also worrying Canada, the US’s nearest neighbour.
“US ideological divisions, democratic erosion, and domestic unrest escalate, plunging the country into civil war,” wrote a Canadian, prominent think tank.
