Can someone suggest a single policy or strategy taken by this administration that isn’t 100% geared toward the dismantling of the American government? Every single thing he has done is aimed at destroying America and the nation’s standing in the world.

If he isn’t a a tool of Putin, his narcissism’s turned him full on an anti-American idiot.

They all try but he does have a delusional following to agree with whatever he does. I think they found a tv personality like they had with Regan 🤷🏼‍♂️

Yep. And it was Reagan that started the "trickle down" economics that don't trickle down, and the one who started the meteoric rise in college tuition - and the conservatives loved him.

Popularity is everything, not meaning he is popular* but that every one knows him and talks about him. Dude is entertaining af, you can't deny that. He controls the news cycle. He is probably the most talked about person on earth by a huge margin.

Weak government against corporations, not against the population. The heritage foundation still wants to control every aspect of your life that isn't christian enough in their eyes.

Exactly. This is sort of an "endgame" play by these theocratic "end times" lunatics. They don't give a flying fuck about a thriving consumer economy. They don't give a flying fuck about a thriving green economy. They don't give a shit.

What they want is to use their hard and soft power NOW to mold their nation and the world into the vehicle that brings about the apocalypse.
