    Trump’s goal is chaos. A Million Americans died from his inept and mismanaged Global Pandemic response the last go around, and loading up every Federal agency with chuckleheads who can only run them into the ground (health, defense, intelligence, finance), he’s gonna beat that first number handily. It’s literally going to be bedlam, everywhere, all the time, with no checks, no balances. In Capitalism, for someone to earn, labor must be taken advantage of. In this scenario, I don’t know how earnings can be created, when everyone is dying from something.

      Idk it seems his goal is consolidation. He’s mirroring Hitler’s exact rise to power. Join party, take it over, get colored shirted goons to attack and harass, Oligarchs back you because the unions are rowdy, and with their backing you win the election. Then you purge nonloyalists from the government as well as problem members, and then you go after the media. Its exactly the same to a T. Its almost like having capitalists run everything always turns to authoritarianism.
