Breaking News: Trump’s Shameless Pay-to-Play Extortion Racket at Mar-a-Lago Washington, D.C. – April 9, 2025 – Buckle up, America, because Donald Trump has turned the presidency into a goddamn cash cow, and it’s time to get pissed. The latest outrage? A $1 million-per-plate dinner at his glitzy Mar-a-Lago estate, where corporate fat cats like Nvidia’s Jensen Huang, Tesla’s Elon Musk, and Oracle’s Larry Ellison shelled out obscene amounts of cash to kiss the ring—and, surprise, they’re walking away with policy wins while Trump’s laughing all the way to the bank [1][2]. This isn’t just influence peddling; it’s a full-on shakedown, and he’s using public resources to pull it off. Free markets? Kiss that shit goodbye. Let’s break this down. Jensen Huang forks over a million bucks, sits down for some overpriced steak, and—bam—suddenly the Trump administration reverses course on export restrictions for Nvidia’s H20 AI chips to China [1]. Coincidence? Hell no. Reports say Nvidia promised some U.S.-based AI data centers in return, but let’s call it what it is: a bribe dressed up as a business deal. Meanwhile, Elon Musk, who’s practically Trump’s shadow these days, gets cozy at the head table, likely whispering sweet nothings about federal contracts for Tesla and SpaceX [1][16]. And Larry Ellison? He’s drooling over Nvidia GPUs for Oracle’s AI dreams, and you bet your ass he’s getting something out of this too [2][17]. These aren’t dinners—they’re auctions for taxpayer-funded favors. Trump’s raking in millions through his MAGA Inc. super PAC, all while hiding these cash grabs from the public. This latest Mar-a-Lago extravaganza wasn’t even on his official schedule—because why let the peasants know who’s buying their government? [16][20]. Lockheed Martin execs were there too, probably angling for a slice of the defense budget pie [1]. And don’t forget casino queen Miriam Adelson and sugar tycoon Pepe Fanjul—big donors who know a million bucks is chump change for a shot at rigging the system [1]. This is pay-to-play on steroids, and it’s happening right under our noses. Here’s the kicker: Trump’s tariffs—those economic sledgehammers he’s swinging at the world—are the perfect leverage. He’s tanking markets, jacking up costs, and forcing these CEOs to crawl to Mar-a-Lago with their checkbooks to beg for relief [4][10]. Nvidia’s regulatory rollback? That’s just the start. Musk and Ellison are bleeding billions from tariff chaos—stock market crashes wiped out $110 billion of Musk’s net worth alone this year [10]—and they’re desperate to make it stop. Trump’s not just profiting; he’s weaponizing public policy to extort these bastards, and we’re all paying the price. This isn’t how free markets work—it’s a fucking mafia racket. Public resources, like trade policy and federal contracts, are being pimped out to the highest bidder while Trump’s properties turn into cash machines. Remember his first term? Foreign dignitaries and lobbyists flooded Trump International Hotel to grease the wheels [10]. Now, Mar-a-Lago’s the new paywall, and the tab’s a cool million bucks a pop. The erosion of trust? Catastrophic. The conflict of interest? Blatant as hell. And the transparency? Nonexistent. Everyone should be livid. This isn’t leadership; it’s a grift. Trump’s not draining the swamp—he’s turned it into a goddamn gold mine. Advocacy groups are screaming for campaign finance reform, and they’re right [10]. But until that happens, America’s stuck watching a billionaire boys’ club buy their way to the front of the line while the rest of us choke on the fallout. Wake up, people—this is your government being sold off, one overpriced dinner at a time.
转： 外媒消息指出，美国总统川普（Donald Trump）原本计划限制英伟达（Nvidia）旗下H20人工智能芯片出口到中国，但在英伟达执行长黄仁勋出席在佛州海湖俱乐部（Mar-a-Lago）举行的晚宴后决定撤回。对此，旅美学者翁履中分析2大关键，直言这场一人100万美元的晚宴，“有可能成为如何与川普打交道的经典教材。”
综合外媒报导，NVIDIA的H20人工智能（AI）芯片是目前唯一在美国出口管制条件下，中国市场上能合法取得的最先进AI处理器，有消息人士指出美国政府数月来计划对该芯片实施出口管制，然而在黄仁勋出席川普于佛州海湖俱乐部（Mar-a-Lago）举行的晚宴后，川普政府突然改变立场，暂缓了对中国出口H20芯片的限制。
对此，翁履中今（11日）在脸书发文表示，黄仁勋的谈判策略可谓一场精心设计的“经典教材”，除了带来钜额投资承诺，包括在美国扩建AI资料中心外，更关键的是政治“诚意”的展现，选在川普最放松、最具主场优势的海湖庄园会面，并掌握谈判气氛与说词节奏，成功让川普获得“对美国有交代”的政绩与面子。
不过，翁履中也警示，川普的决策风格向来善变，今天点头不代表明天不反悔，NVIDIA未来若希望维持出口稳定，仍须长期维系与川普及其决策圈的互动与利益交换，这也反映出未来“川普时代”可能带来的政治风险与政策波动。

我看到新闻的时候还是不敢相信，Google好几次希望是假新闻……
从老黄角度上说，他确实牛，公司能做这么大高瞻远瞩
