Department of Government Efficiency taking USAID "down" and Trump admin criminalizing transgender identity point to a bleak conclusion

What may very well be happening right now is a soft coup that will place Trump as dictator for life, for lack of a better word. Remember that Nazi Germany was funded by capitalists (much like the Musks of the time) and gained power through the limits of liberal ideals. Hitler didn’t seize power with a rifle; he was invited to rule by the elected chancellor. Before that, he was also considered to be a joke and a clown.

Increasingly feeling this way myself. Especially the whole clown thing ringing a little too close for comfort. I suppose the one thing that makes me question it is Trump's age. He is not in the best of shape though with the healthcare he receives I suppose he could easily live another 10 years even with the stressors of office. Though it also strikes me with the Greenland stuff, incorporating Mexico, beyond being part of a potential wider plan and move by the bourgeoisie may be vain attempts as well to secure his legacy, that he desperately wants some lasting thing that confers greatness to his name in historic terms.

Certainly the naming of harmful, deranged sycophants like RFK who just cleared committee and wants to add to trans people, also people with ADHD, probably others non-neurotypical people who take drugs to help their conditions by setting up camps for them and setting them up as another enemy or at least victim to brutalize while claiming to "help".

It'd be hilarious how easy it is for them to just stop environmental laws and good health practices purely via executive department actions because none of this was even a little codified by Democrats in congress if it wasn't so vicious and I wasn't so increasingly worried about whether in 2 years buying prepared food has a 5% chance of just killing you with some illness or heavy metals or whatever because those regulations have all been destroyed along with any consequences and the bourgeoisie have received the loud and clear signal to grab as much profit as they can. And the Democratic party apparatchiks nod approvingly at this "disciplining" of their base for daring not to vote for them for genocide in Gaza (Trump just announced plans to clear Gaza, maybe use the US military but approval of displacing all the Palestinian people there and building a luxury resort city).

Very, very bleak stuff. Obviously long-term this does point to a decent chance the empire falls for good but those stuck in it like myself are in for some dangerous and interesting times.

I think him extending his term and such is not going to happen. I can't tell you why though. It just doesn't align with my understanding of the great shaitan.
- I think everyone has it wrong. Trump isnt the Hitler. Elon Musk is. Elon will run in the next election if he isnt just appointed directly. I do think theyll keep doing election and just rig them tho.

Living in the US feels right now feels like being in one of those slow burn crazy cult horror movies like Midsommar.
