The Trump administration Psyops operation

This has become less a question of incompetence and more about domination and control of the citizens of this country. Read all about Psyops techniques on Wikileaks for a concise definition. This is all by design. I am not a conspiracy theorist but this looks ominously like an authoritarian takeover. Trump and company are impossibly stupid. But there are people who work for these misanthropes who are anything but clueless.

Seems an authoritarian would have implemented Defense Production Act at least.

He is just out of his depth and is trying to lie through a disaster.

Some will always find a way to enhance their position and finances irregardless of the situation.

Implementing the DPA would stop the profits made on PPE by Trumps people. Trump is all about money as well.
