As the noose tightens, expect something crazy to happen, like a terrorist-ish attack

Dont believe for one minute Steve Bannon will give up the power to turn this into a fascist country without a very deadly fight.

He has dreamed for years of taking this country down, lock, stock and barrel and he will do something to try and stop justice from occurring.

We have to be prepared.

I think chump has also pissed off the generals so they are watching events in this country closely. They don't like Bannon.

NOT falling in line and singing kum bay ah like they did after 9/11.

For Trump to do something like that, he would need the help of some foreign and domestic dirty tricksters who serve the deep state. If he doesn't have the deep state behind him, it would blow up in his face. Hell, they'd probably leak the details of his plans just to screw him.

At this point, my question is whether they think they can make Trump a reliable puppet on foreign policy, or if they think he is too unpredictable to trust and remove hI'm one way or the other.

It looks a lot more like the second option is going to happen.

all we can hope is someone, somewhere in that WH administration has some courage and conscience before this happens. Bannon is a crazy anti-semite, racist who cares nothing about 'others' and most of his own race, really. He will see most of them as collateral damage.

there is no way Bannon is.

Trump leaves and continues his crimes with Russia and gets richer. Bannon wants more, he wants death and destruction on a very large scale.

Mir A Lago. While Trump is there, but heroically escapes. Making him a hero, a war hero.
It will also allow the taxpayers to pay for rebuilding and upgrading the property.secrity stuff....

is well known for violence: Waco, Columbine, OKC, even the start of the Revolutionary War.
I would say the odds are stacked in favor of mass violence within the next 30 days.
Pay attention to your surroundings and watch out for each other.
