We are in a Constitutional Crisis and soon we will be in an economic crisis. Things are just moving too fast for the system to accommodate things and so Trump — and Musk — have a lot of slack they can use before things get really bad.
But if Trump and Musk manage to crash the economy in the context of Trump becoming a dictator…some unusual things may happen. Now, remember the context — if we somehow magically depose Trump, that will probably cause a civil war because Red States will bolt from the Union.
An I don’t really know how Trump would be deposed — it’s not like the US Military is going to do anything about him. But I am concerned that there will come a point when we’re going to lurch into a situation where a lot of otherwise moderate people are radicalized to the point that we might have, I don’t know, a General Strike?
At last in Blue States.
There is something else I’m really worried about — some sort of False Flag Reichstag Fire type event that will deflect attention from Trump’s dictatorial moves to the point that by the time we snap out of things we really will be fucked.
Regardless, it does seem as though the usual Trump chaos is about to be taken up a few notches in the next few days. When Trump and Musk decide to simply not pay things that have been ordered by Congress…yikes…chaos in the streets!
But we still have time. Maybe I’m overthinking things like usual and nothing of note is going to happen.
