All of this, the tariffs, the HHS, the Fed, the proposed invasions, all of it is a pattern.
A pattern of a seemingly incompetent vandal who’s actually on a well-planned demolition mission to deliberately destroy every pillar of US policy & power. Which will comprehensively undermine the entire West.
The Russians are about to win the Cold War after all. Reagan put up his figurative “Mission Accomplished” sign about 40 years early.
The only way this makes sense is if trump and the inner circle are “Muscovian Candidates” answering to Putin. Putin intends to crush the USA the way he perceives the West crushed the Soviet Union. But what’s left of the USA will be far less significant on the world stage than was Russia at its post-Soviet nadir.
I’m pretty much aligned w @SenorBeef: most peoples’ impressions of our worst case outcome are crazy optimistic compared to the actual best case outcome.
