    How so? USA is money central, the capital of the biggest economy since at least WW2.

    I’m not saying the original source, I didn’t mean to imply that. I think that would be the banks if I had to pick just one.

    Who do you think is the source today or how far do you go back?

    Ha! I guess.

      Based on what we learned in the very short window when Twitter let people see location information about specific accounts, I think we can trace a lot of Trump’s “grassroots” support back to Russia.

        Russia has a much smaller economy, not even equivalent to California.

        I think you give them too much credit, Trump even played a rich businessman on TV; he’s an “ideal” Republican candidate (name recognition and for sale to highest bidder)
