"I hate rainy days."
Washington, put away your umbrella.
The tall old man straightened his blond hair, then touched the red tie around his neck, complained, and opened the door of the restaurant in front of him.
Outside the restaurant, heavy rain flooded Washington.
The restaurant was empty except for one table, with no other customers.
In the entire restaurant, apart from the patter of rain, there was only the sound of knives and forks hitting the plates.
Casually inserting the umbrella in his hand into the umbrella stand at the door of the restaurant, the man looked at the figures dining at the table, frowning with an unhappy expression on his face.
"So, you're the one who wants to see me?"
Gazing across the silent dining figure, the blond old man raised his eyebrows, raised his palms out of habit, and spoke in coordination.
"Hey, my time is valuable, so don't waste it, you hear me?"
In fact, if it weren't for the military connection, the blond old man wouldn't even appear in the restaurant.
Bang!
With the sound of the man's voice, the figure who had been eating silently at the dining table finally stood up. He reached out and picked up the red wine glass in front of him and took a sip. Then he looked up at the old blond man in front of him, revealing his gray hair. With a vicissitudes of life, he spoke slowly.
"Mr. Donald ***, congratulations on winning the Republican nomination."
Because of the "Day of Annihilation", the election schedules of both parties in the United States were affected, and all election activities had to be suspended.
However, with the end of 'Day of Annihilation', the internal presidential candidate elections of the two parties are once again in full swing.
And the Donald *** in front of him is the presidential candidate nominee of this term of the American Republican Party.
However, compared to the vast majority of American politicians, Donald Trump is definitely an anomaly.
Compared with his political identity, his role as a businessman and even a talent show star is more prominent.
Even within the Republican Party, Donald Trump's emergence was a surprise.
And the vast majority of Republicans are not optimistic about the election of Donald Trump at all.
"So, you are one of those guys who wants to get close to me?"
Hearing the congratulations spoken by the man in his eyes, the old man named Donald *** showed a proud smile on his face.
As a businessman and real estate developer, it is not an accident that Donald *** became the nominee this time. He is passionate enough about politics and even participated in the election as the Republican nominee four years ago. After the debate, he decisively withdrew from the race.
That election brought him huge benefits, especially business achievements.
Once again, Donald ***, as an American businessman, was not among the top ones. All changes came in the election, after he became the Republican nominee.
Because of his experience four years ago, Donald ***, who has a taste for food and taste, once again participated in the Republican election candidate and successfully stood out.
Unlike these boring politicians, the identity of the draft star not only brought enough fame to Donald Trump, but also made him not afraid of controversy due to his performance.
In fact, for him, the presidential race is less an election than a giant talent show.
His purpose is not the throne of the White House, but just to gain exposure for the *** family's business.
"No."
Faced with Donald ***'s rhetorical question, the man at the table put down the red wine glass in his hand and said lightly.
"I'm here to bring victory to Donald ***."
"victory?"
Donald *** obviously sneered at the man's answer.
He stretched out his hand and gestured, and said with a nonchalant expression: "My *** family has been successful enough, and I don't need an outsider to tell me what to do..."
"I mean this is an election victory."
The man was obviously not surprised by Donald ***'s arrogant and arrogant character. He just continued to look at the blond man with an orange complexion and spoke word by word.
"Election, you mean..."
Although Donald *** was slow, he was not stupid. He obviously understood the meaning of the man's words.
However, he immediately showed an expression of disbelief. He shook his head and looked at the man in front of him like a madman.
"You are crazy. Everyone knows that the outcome of this election has long been determined. Various general election polls have also shown that I have no chance of success."
"Polls are just a trend survey. They cannot be used as answers. Even to me, polls are just a pile of sand made of numbers. Any wave can destroy them."
Regarding Donald ***’s answer, the man described these so-called poll results with full disdain, even contempt.
“Public opinion is the most easily manipulated thing in the world. The vast majority of people who vote don’t even know what they are doing. Voting is not a rational but an emotional choice. As long as there are enough ways to mobilize voters at the last moment, Even if the candidate is a dog, they will cast their vote without hesitation, because there are always more idiots than smart people in this world, but their votes are equally valuable."
"Then, how can you convince most of these idiots to vote for me instead of that old woman?"
Apparently, the man's words convinced Donald ***.
He gave up the intention of turning around from the restaurant, but sat down at the dining table and looked at the gray-haired man in front of him.
"What do you think of the recent 'Day of Annihilation' happening in New York City, Mr. Donald ***?"
However, instead of answering Donald ***'s question, the man changed the subject and suddenly asked Donald ***, who was sitting in front of him.
"You're talking about that monster invasion?"
Faced with the man's question, Donald *** showed a puzzled expression on his face, but he still answered subconsciously.
"It was simply a disaster, because the 'Day of Annihilation' caused damage to many of my properties, and even the business of the *** Building in New York City plummeted."
As a real estate businessman, the impact of 'Day of Annihilation' clearly had an impact on Donald ***'s career.
In fact, it is precisely for this reason that forced Donald Trump to participate in the election more firmly.
He needs a platform to promote his industry.
And in this world, nothing can increase one's reputation more than the American presidential election.
Moreover, through ‘legal’ fundraising, he does not need to spend a penny and can even make a lot of money through elections.
"It's not just you, Mr. Donald ***, who thinks this way, the vast majority of American citizens also think so. Although the Avengers and superheroes helped us protect New York, if you think about it from another perspective, Isn't it because of the existence of superheroes like the Avengers that we have become more dangerous?"
"After all, before the emergence of superheroes, the United States had always been very 'peaceful' and 'safe'."
Looking at Donald *** who was complaining repeatedly in front of him, the man said in a meaningful tone.
"It's a very new view, but I think the vast majority of American citizens would not agree with this view, right?"
Hearing the man's description, Donald *** raised his eyebrows, but did not completely believe what the other person said.
Today, superheroes are still considered a positive word in the mouths of the American people.
"They may not agree with it now, but that doesn't mean they will in the future."
As he spoke, the man took out the information he had prepared and handed it to Donald ***.
"This is?"
Donald *** looked back and opened the dense information in front of him.
What was recorded in it were photos of weird and deformed shapes, as well as a large number of criminal records.
"Because of 'Day of Annihilation', more than hundreds of thousands of weirdos have appeared throughout the United States. Not all of these weirdos are guys marching on the streets fighting for so-called peaceful rights. Many of them have participated in criminal incidents. Using the power of mutations to do evil has gradually become a huge social problem. Currently, the federal government is trying hard to suppress these problems and avoid the direct conflicts between weirdos and ordinary people from intensifying. However, this is not a good thing for Donald *** For you, sir, this is an opportunity."
"I think people have the right to know the truth."
Listening to what the man said, Donald *** looked at the dense information in his hands, and his breathing began to become a little faster.
He was keenly aware that this might be an opportunity.
A plan that would actually put him, as the man said, in the White House.
However, although Donald *** was excited, he did not completely lose his mind.
He knew very well that relying solely on the information in his hands, there was obviously still a long way to go before he could get into the White House.
"These are not enough."
Therefore, Donald *** took a deep breath, calmed down his inner excitement, looked at the man in front of him and gritted his teeth.
"certainly."
Glancing at Donald *** in front of him with admiration, the man reached out again and took out a document that was half the amount of dense information in Donald ***'s hand, and pushed it in front of him.
"After all, weirdos are just a new ethnic group. They may be able to stir up topics, but they won't be able to cause enough fear among the people, but these can."
After hearing the man's description, Donald *** put down the information about weird people in his hand, swallowed, and opened the new information in front of him with his slightly trembling palms.
"If, when the American people discover that the superheroes who protect them are, in a sense, another kind of disaster, what will their attitude be like when facing the Avengers? Or will it be the same as before? Is it worship, or will it turn into resentment, love giving rise to hatred..."
Following the man's plain but slightly magical description, Donald *** looked at it. The information in his hand recorded the damage caused by the Hulk to New York City in the Avengers. A man with a mechanical arm and a cold expression Photos of harming ordinary people, and a scene of a man in a skull suit going on a killing spree.
These bloody scenes made Donald ***'s orange face turn a little pale, but his expression became more and more excited.
"When the illusory coat of superheroes is punctured, the entire American people will discover that the Avengers they once trusted are the source of all disasters. The weird people parading in the streets are, to ordinary people, They are just walking disasters..."
Looking at the excited Donald *** in front of him, the gray-haired man's right eye began to flash with a bloody light, and a 'six' representing the number was looming.
“America needs a new president, a president who exposes the fabrications of the current ruling party and the federal government and brings them security, a president who makes ‘America safer’.”
In the man's flashing right eye, Donald ***'s expression became a little dazed.
However, the remaining reason he had left could not help but ask.
"Your purpose is, where did you get this information about superheroes?"
Although Donald Trump is arrogant and arrogant in being able to become the Republican candidate, he is not completely a brainless idiot. After all, it is impossible for a real fool to make the bankruptcy numbers rise again.
He knew very well that the information about the Avengers and superheroes in his hands was not something that ordinary people could easily access.
However, when a man leaves these to himself, he definitely has an ulterior secret.
Raising his eyebrows, the gray-haired man showed a surprised expression towards Donald *** for the first time.
He looked the orange-faced old man up and down, then lowered his head and said with a strange smile: "Donald ***, you may have heard of the 'Superhero Registration Act' proposed by the military. This information comes from For the military, it also represents their attitude towards superheroes."
"I see?"
Hearing the man's answer, the expression on Donald ***'s face was no longer surprised.
The reason why he came to the restaurant also has the shadow of the military. It can be seen from the man's words that the military obviously hopes to accomplish something through him.
After understanding the purpose of the man and the military behind him, Donald *** felt more relieved.
"So, what's your name?"
Heaving a sigh of relief, Donald *** raised his head, looked at the vicissitudes of life man with gray hair in front of him, and asked his name.
"Steve Bannon."
His right eye flashed a faint blood, and the man smiled and replied.
He raised the red wine glass in his hand and said to Donald ***.
"Make America Safer, President Donald Trump."
"Haha, make 'America safer' Mr. Steve Bannon."
"From now on, you are my chief strategist and senior advisor."
"At your service, Mr. President."
