Toot

I've had a bad feeling ever since Obama failed to get his Supreme Court pick appointed, but I think America (as we knew it) is gone now.

Purging the FBI, cancelling spending, giving Musk the keys to the cash machine, banning "DEI" nationally, starting trade wars, proposing concentration camps, purging Black & female leaders in the civil service and armed forces, firing prosecutors, firing Inspectors General...all illegal but confident that any real challenges will get to SCOTUS and be rejected

How long before

1: protesters hit the streets in numbers, and

2: start to get killed (by Proud Boys, entitled car drivers, the state)?

@bthalpin I've just posted to this effect. I can't see any way back for the US, at least for many years to come. The question is what the rest of us should do.

@bthalpin

And we thought #Trump was daft before getting reelected ... 🤪

So, why is he doing all this crazy shit?

It may be to obfuscate his criminal record, his inability to comprehend and deal with the real world or to overcompensate for his 'shortcomings'. (Sorry Arnold, but why else would Donnie have made such a crass reference in public if he had not been so enamored and envious of your endowment.)
