As the walls close in on Trump....

As the walls begin to close in tighter and tighter on Trump, he will revert back to the most basic base there is: white supremacists.

His rhetoric will become more violent in nature. He will not just be hinting at things, he will be saying them out loud.

His “castle keep “ will be an attempt to ratchet up the violence. He will believe his only hope is total chaos and then presenting himself as Savior. It is a suicidal strategy, but he will take lives as he goes down.

Guess he doesn’t want a complete shutout.

If he softened his tone he’d turn off the only people who like him anymore.

His ego can’t take that.

Were willing to enter a coalition with Hitler. The Center Party would not join the Social Democrats, the Communists would not join anyone. So it was Hitler invited to form the government. A very different system from ours, and had the Communists and Center been willing to band together with the Social Democrats, Hitler would be a footnote for specialists.
