    Nothing at all to worry about that Trump’s nearly highest priority is to install loyal leadership at the military. Nope, nothing concerning about that. Everything is fine.

    Never thought I’d see the end of US military hegemony in my lifetime. But this makes it that much more likely.

    It will tale generations to undo all the dammage he has told everyone that he will cause to the US.

    The last shred of hope I have is that all the people that are being picked for various federal roles are so incompetent that they can’t even crime properly.

      Well, give that hope up. That was what he did first go round. They’re been plotting for 4+ years on how to do it right this time.

      Steve Bannon was just talking about door-to-door thugs to enforce illegal removal. They’re already plotting concentration camps on the border.

      They have their shit together this time. Remember Hitler’s failed Beer Hall Putsch? Same deal.

      Thats the hope. Trump gets side tracked chasing the news cycle and golfing while his incompetent lackeys smear shit on the walls. A couple years later he chokes on a hamberder, Vance pushes through some last minute tax breaks to pay off his backers and leaves office in 2028.

    Listen, guys. It’s bad. Yes.

    Please if you’re freaking out, watch this.

    If you don’t know this guy, he’s an OG Security guy, very frequent speaker at Black Hat and DEF CON. Brilliant guy in many ways.

    The tl;dw:

    Government is a lumbering giant that is as hard to change negatively as it is to change positively. That’s not to say things are a-okay. They’re not. But there are solutions to every problem, and historically, love wins.

      If you go through the proper channels? Absolutely. If you have babysitters watching him and putting restrictions on what he can do like his last term? Absolutely. When his administration’s babysitters called him out and left the field. Telling people not to elect him again. And now he’s just surrounding himself with Craven yes men. And is going to go outside of normal procedure. To put more Yes Men in place. You can’t count on the lumbering giant anymore.
