‘Hulk’ Hogan was at the RNC because of Peter Thiel, one of the billionaires funding Trump’s campaign. In 2007, Thiel claimed that Gawker outed him, even though it wasn’t a secret. In 2012, Gawker published s*x tapes of Hogan. Thiel funded Hogan’s lawsuit, which eventually bankrupted Gawker in 2016 from a $140 million judgement. Hogan has a lot of dirty laundry that he might not want in the news if he would run for office.
I’m from Bethlehem, as in Bethlehem Steel. Their bean counters fought modernization until they became unprofitable and eventually went bankrupt.
