      Those are the people who specifically allowed the orange shitstain to get to this point.

        Yeah, but it’s baffling why they would. It’s one thing to enable people who increase their personal wealth and power, but we’re seeing the beginnings of a complete fascist takeover. There’s no world where they’re safe if trump puts himself in a position where he can punish anyone with impunity, because he views even the smallest slights as a declaration of war. Everyone will eventually find themselves on the wrong side of that list. We’ve seen it throughout history.

          The people in power know how easy it is to manipulate him. And they’re going to use that to get richer and enrich their buddies.

          I suspect they also may be banking on dementia to get rid of him if necessary. Though Trump seems to have gone with the Vance doctrine to try and prevent that.
