What was said
"He wasn't going to set the world on fire into the SpaceX IPO. I've been tweeting these things like tinfoil hat theories that are things that I actually— sometimes they're sort of true, but sometimes not. And they ruffled some feathers because people are like, no way, he wouldn't do that for Elon. And it's like, well, maybe he would."
The hosts claim Trump deliberately escalated then de-escalated Iran tensions to manipulate market volatility around the SpaceX IPO, benefiting leveraged players. They point to precise FX timing and VIX positioning as evidence of coordinated statecraft, with one host stating the administration has someone giving incredible FX advice and calling plays based on derivatives positioning.
