BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate, a controversial influencer known for his polarizing views, sparked a social media frenzy when he drew a comparison between himself and former US president Donald Trump. Trump, renowned for his role as the US president, also gained fame as a television personality and amassed considerable wealth as a billionaire. However, it is worth noting that Trump's tenure was marked by controversy, particularly in 2021 when he refused to concede defeat to Joe Biden, alleging widespread conspiracies.

In recent months, Tate has been at the center of attention due to his provocative viewpoints that have raised concerns among many. He has faced serious accusations, including allegations of human trafficking and rape in Romania. This former kickboxer, along with his brother Tristan, faced legal consequences when they were arrested in Romania shortly after engaging in a heated online exchange with climate activist Greta Thunberg.

'Everyone else is bought and paid for'

During a recent Twitter interaction, Tate made some intriguing statements suggesting the existence of Matrix agents within various political factions and highlighted the prevalence of financed wars. He boldly asserted that both he and Trump were exceptions to this norm, emphasizing their self-funding status and implying that most other individuals involved in politics were susceptible to external monetary influences. While his claims are provocative, they shed light on his perception of the political landscape and the potential role of financial interests in shaping political decisions and outcomes.

Tate wrote, "There are Matrix agents on all sides of the political spectrum. War is funded. Trump and I are self funded. Basically everyone else is bought and paid for."



 

'Go for president 2028'

As Tate continued to draw comparisons between himself and Trump, the Twitter platform became a space where users felt compelled to voice their perspectives. One user wrote, "And they don't want someone like you and Trump..." Another user wrote, 'Self funded? You inherited the tater tots fortune, bro. A user stated, "I didn’t know you were a jokester too brother, I love it! 😂💪👑" A user commented, "Trump is self funded? U see his business dealings? He received 10x the standard price for leasing his jet to Saudi elites or Russian oligarchs. This is the tip of the iceberg. He is being paid and manipulated like a puppet by foreign entities, not sure it’s better or worse than being a puppet of the matrix.." Another user commented, "Absolutely! The influence of money in politics is undeniable. Trump's self-funding sets him apart from the rest." A user urges Tate to join politics, "Yes, go for president 2028 after trump retires."
