As you watch the Trump regime wreck everything in sight, you should be regularly asking yourself this question:
If the stated goal was to end democracy, ruin the economy, accelerate climate change, shred human rights, aid our adversaries, and steal everything in sight -- would the regime be doing anything differently?
@dangillmor If that were his goal I suspect he'd actually be doing LESS damage. He's out to pilot the works onto the rocks as expediently as he can guide it there. I'm not sure if it's vascular dementia or the murder-suicide of a dissolving marriage we're seeing here.
@Beggarmidas @dangillmor perhaps they are planning to engineer a crisis and then impose martial law and put aside the constitution. But perhaps that can't be done until all the forces that could resist such a move have been dismantled.
@Beggarmidas @dangillmor after that, some sort of conference to write a new constitution, with MAGA holding the majority. Also, keeping the military on side during the process by having complete control of finances and being able to hand out large bonus payments.
@Beggarmidas @dangillmor funny that you can make up any crazy scenario that you like these days, and it seems just as plausible as anything else.
@ghouston @dangillmor Just like yours & everyone elses first instinct told you all along before you started mindfucking yourself into seeking depth where none was to be found....This is JUST as stupid as it seems. And that stupidity has allowed every single one of y'all to trick yourselves into vapor locking yourselves into inaction looking for wheels within wheels.
Turns out to trick this country all it takes is being dumb enough to let the smart people outsmart themselves.
@ghouston I think that's quite credible. Many examples of exactly that in the history of the world.
