1. We have to stop considering our status as only the result of his impulsivity and pathology.

What's happening has been the plan.

Stated early on.

Shutter the government. Empty out the agencies; fail to appoint and replace critical jobs. Appoint others who are unqualified or even antithetical to the mission and task. Ruin the economy with tariffs and taxes. Kill regulations that protect the planet and its people. Weaken America and weaken the Western Alliance. Keep one third of the people in thrall to the clown circus. Need I continue?

It is all of a piece. A plot.

Wake up, America. Wake up.

He's just the barker, the tool.
