Good quick analysis from Rachel. "Watch what he does, not what he says."

There is a purpose to his madness. A scripted, malevolent purpose.

Carefully timed to slowly remove protections and insert forces loyal to the cause. Maybe not to trump, but to the fascist, white-supremacist xian cause.

Don't rile up the populace too much all at once. Turn up the heat in selected places, selected groups. Normalize.

Then when the population is cowed and quiet, subdue them all - including the 2A zealots.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
