Showing Original Post only (View all)I have this theory. That Trump is not really in charge [View all]
There have been appointments to our agencies, institutions and billionaires behind the scenes that are truly the ones that are calling the shots. He didn't provide those names for his appointments, they were selected for him. And there are others that tell those appointments what to do. Trump is kept in a cocoon and his ego is constantly stroked by his cabinet and advisors to keep him thinking he is in control of everything that is going on. They let him rant on social media, attend to his beautification projects and make appearances where he makes up bullshit that is never confronted or fact checked. He is easily manipulated by people that are much smarter and more devious than him. Hard to imagine that someone is more evil than Trump. All you have to do is look at Stephen Miller and you will find one. I think the others are shrouded. They have to know that his mental faculties are in serious decline. And that is to their advantage. So they just baby walk him. Knowing that he will do whatever they "talk him into".
There are a whole bunch of people that are getting ridiculously rich. There are ideologues that are getting their polices and agendas implemented. The speed at which our democracy is being dismantled is mind-numbing. They did this damage in 17 months. They used the Project 25 handbook at breakneck speed. Like this was their only chance. If they did enough damage it couldn't be undone. And if they can fuck with the midterms they can complete their tasks.
I don't think that Trump is smart enough or capable enough to have done this himself and I don't think it was his idea. All he wanted to do was to be all powerful and the center of attention. He has many enablers.
I don't think it was just Bibi that talked him into this Iran adventure. There had to be others. What is their goal??
These are things I think about.
Most people on the street have no idea what perilous times we are in. Most people are not paying attention. Yeah they notice their gas prices, and grocery prices are sky-rocketing, but they don't realize the danger that our democracy is in. It is a five-alarm fire.
Who is gonna save us??
