Yeah I think Trump actually could’ve been a successful dictator if he had just… you know… materially improved the lives of the population before burning down all of our institutions. People don’t believe in America, they’re not going to cling to the ideal if their lives meaningfully improve while it’s trashed. But he didn’t do that.
Much like Season 1 Trump, but a little scarier imo, I think the administration’s greed and incompetence will be our only saving grace. Though the increasingly-militant resistance is also a very good sign.

It’s chaos. Trump is an empty vessel filled with whomever is standing next to him.
His daughter didn’t like immigrant children washing up on beaches (first term) so sanctions were placed.
As soon as Elon went to work the next one pushed him out to take over filling up Trump with ideas.
He gushed over Mamdani even though the man is his opposite.
The rubber banding makes sense when you realize he’s a big, dumb sponge for the guy talking to him. Right now, it’s Stephen Miller.
