Geopolitics with Ghost Ep. 129: Trump’s Midterm Gloat, Loomer’s Meltdown & Russia-Africa Summit
The day after the midterms, Ghost explains why a show that skips domestic politics is covering them anyway: he argues the results matter geopolitically, and that Trump is having a great time. He walks through Trump's Truth Social posts hammering Fox News and Bill de Blasio, then plays Ron DeSantis blaming the dragged-out Iran war and high gas prices, and calls the "change election" pitch a uniparty op that echoes Rahm Emanuel. He also reads Laura Loomer's post-election doom posts and traces Israel's political history from Theodor Herzl through Labor and Likud. In hour two, Ghost plugs GART 14 in St. Pete Beach, weighs General Flynn's response to JD Vance's election postmortem, and plays Trump saying the Iran conflict "isn't really war." He argues the conflict has built sympathy for Iran, then breaks down the Russia-Africa Summit: Putin's pitch for a multipolar order, mining and processing investment, AI deals, grain and fertilizer, and Burkina Faso's first gold refinery. He closes by reading Badlands Boosts.
