The Rest Is Politics: US · 178. Who’s Getting Rich Off Trump’s War? · 17 Apr 2026 podcast

So he's basically in a gilded cage.

And in this gilded cage, he is surrounded by people who have made a phenomenal, mind-blowing amount of money, whether it's their businesses that are Trump-adjacent, whether they're in the crypto space, whether they're investors who seemingly know exactly what the market's going to do before anyone else.

So he's surrounded by people, or he's suddenly around many, many tech leaders

who've grown close to him because now the AI universe is gonna face almost no regulation in Trump 2.0.

So those frustrated, angry Americans, many of whom voted for him or didn't vote for him or didn't vote at all because they're so frustrated that the government doesn't work for them despite the fact that they pay taxes, I don't think he's seeing or hearing those people right now.

However, unlike Trump 1.0, where he was very frustrated,

by people in his own administration who weren't doing what he liked, I think he's very happy now.

Even if he's leading policies that aren't wildly popular, he has a 100% accommodative administration who executes

whatever he fancies.

And he's only surrounding himself by Americans who are winning big time economically.

And he himself and his family and the family of Howard Lutnick and Howard Lutnick's children and so on and so forth have become so phenomenally wealthy.

Good times are here again for them, right?

We've talked about this before.

Think about Trump's World Liberty Financial.

Trump's meme coin, it's down 82%.

But Trump and his family have extracted billions of dollars.

So while I think the American people are frustrated and angry, I don't think that he is.

I saw the president three weeks ago.

I went to lunch at the White House on the day of the State of the Union, which to me, he was facing a very frustrated, angry America.

He almost seemed joyous.
