I wonder (a somewhat terrifying thought)

[LearnedHand]

I was just reading the long essay "Trump's brain is not okay," and I had this thought (admittedly a little on the conspiracy theory side): What if the idea is not just to get Trump in office so he can be president again and crime his crimes and fulfill their autocracy wish list? What if the idea is to get a DEMENTED Trump in office so they can 25th amendment him and install a "sane" dictator who will fully implement project 2025? Not sure who "they" are, hence the whiff of conspiracy theory. But it means the Veep choice might be interesting.

1. That has crossed my mind.

It is terrifying.

2. Honestly I hope it's just fear

Things look really good for Biden and the Dems, but you never know what dirty repuke tricks are ahead.

3. 25th A. Says the VP becomes president

So we will see who he picks for VP running mate.

Pompeo would scare me that this plan was operational.

5. Exactly what I mean!

So many scary names could indicate that.

4. Even if trump was installed for one day as dictator, there'd be another put in his place - instantly.

Since there would be no laws on day 1, anyone with enough power (physical) will take over.

The new one won't be any friend to democracy or even to the stupid magats. They'll lose their beloved 2nd Amendment rights, just like all of us will lose every protection in the Constitution.

[Think. Again.]

6. I wouldn't put it past rightwingers to do that.
