Well, firstly you have to understand that deep down on the DNA level the man is a weasel. Everything springs from that, with each successive gain in financial success, he's become emboldened and excused to allow his inner weasel to run wild. He's got 11 kids at last count. He's done everything we wanted to do professionally, and then he got bored, and found the greatest drug there is for a weasel with tyrannical proclivities, using his money to buy power, in order to act like a god, then bully and hurt people. It's not rocket science.
He's being a Nazi
doing all he can to gain more power and get more ways to crush opposition. He has already subverted democratic process. When did he get elected to do stuff that affects your government and country?
All of this is so that after they have made it nearly impossible to be investigated, held responsible, or audited, they will run a big expensive scam on the government dime and cash out. They are bank robbers. This is the plot to Die Hard! The only difference is instead of stealing treasury bonds from an exchange, they plan to issue the bonds to themselves from the treasury building!
Cocaine & Ketamine, but cutting it with something else, I know not what (tons of money?)
I'll link a video about it I found both interesting and depressing. It gives insight into at least part of the reason he's doing this. The other part is that he blames the left for taking his trans daughter away from him even though he was an absent father to begin with. He's fucking delusional.
Follow his Masters' demands.
Acting like if he owns a country and its institutions?
I do wonder for how much longer Trump will tolerate such a diva standing right next to him on scene?
(that's coming from a non-US citizen. I may not be the most well informed, mind you)
Destabilising regions and install pro-tesla/anti-regulation government, doing whatever the latestage capitalism is doing. The billionaires lining up behind him like a dog is the proof.
A coup.
I think he truly deeply wants to go to Mars. It’s his dream. His one mission. His destiny. I think he actually believes he is the only person that will be able to get people there. In his head, he’s space Jesus. Everyone else is an NPC. He sees government, the left, regulations, workers rights every thing as a barrier for him to move along on his goal. He’s breaking everything appart to build himself a runway. He’s doing one last grift, one last pump and dump to say goodbye and take off. He doesn’t care if the US doesn’t exist in 50 years since he will be off planet.
It's a global far right power grab, fueled by dark money and weaponized disinformation. He's just the face of it.
Ketamine high on power actually believed half the bullshit he deludes himself to.
That and/or he's being pressured by Russia as well. But he definitely off his head on ketamine and dissociatives hit hard.
Basically what theyre doing together is destroying the US because they were Russian enemy nr1.
Not any more. Putin controls the US more or less now.
