Trump is a curious historic figure because he’s so stupid that he can’t even put enough brain cells together to do the most basic of sneaky tyrannical things when given his first opportunity, while at the same time is wily enough to destroy everything whenever he gets a second chance.
So the latest thing that Trump has done is to yet again dip into the stochastic terrorism well. We have to take this seriously because he knows exactly what he’s doing — putting the idea of a “bloodbath” into the mind of his supporters if he doesn’t win later this year.
This is something I have been talking and writing about over and over and over again. We have to worry about Trump causing a civil war if he wins OR if he loses. He’s such a weird, divisive figure in our political history that just by existing — and acting as the avatar for the MAGA fascist movement that he is very, very destabilizing.
It all boils down to one issue — if we’re pushed to the bring, are we going to stop yelling at each other and start to…shoot at each other? I really don’t want any political violence of any sort, but I am very, very worried.
