I mean, I keep wondering if donnie even wants the republicons to win in 2026 election, at least not without massive cheating and election chaos, that is.
Gas is hovering around $100 a barrel already. Diesel is around $6 a gal already. A sure-fire way to get a lot of people to dislike the administration is to have high gas prices.
See and this is the puzzling thing, they must know the upcoming election is rigged, and are okay with whatever new world order emerges in the ashes. For every dumb person in this administration, there is a more sinister and calculating person pulling the strings…
They keep pushing hard to get other election stealing schemes through, and GOP candidates are panicking like crazy. Is that all smoke & mirrors? Or do they really have that little faith they can successfully steal the elections?
It’s possible that those folks are just instruments of chaos without being privileged with the information of whats coming, that or promises have been broken and its all just a chaotic scramble to CYA. I have no idea there other than the suggestion they are paranoid and don’t really think it will work lol
On the one hand, I agree that there’s more than what we can see going on, both who is in control and the strategy. But on the other hand, part of conspiracy mindset is the comfort in thinking there’s some mastermind at work that only you know about… because the alternative would be that this is it, what you see is what’s actually making decisions, and that is far more frightening than some secret council or lizard people pulling strings. There is no one driving the bus.
Normally I would 100% agree with this, but we know the project 2025 document exists and it was developed by the heritage foundation…who has dubious ties to several billionaires…so I don’t believe for a second this is all just monumental stupidity, with an emphasis on “all” as I am sure some of the events that have unfolded recently happened organically due to the level of intelligence in the room lol
If anything it’s those few wealthy that are pulling strings. But even they can’t agree on things and have their own agenda, so I think even the hidden control is a chaotic mess and not as neat as a conspiracy thinker would like. Going back to the bus analogy, there’s not the absence of a driver, but multiple people fighting over the steering. Which is worse?
Yep that makes sense, nobody agreeing on a definitive path with multiple people tugging at the wheel. That tracks. All I know is its going to get messier before it gets better, if that is even possible now.
My take is that it is very much a conspiracy, and not even a particularly well disguised one. It’s actually pretty obvious which is why it’s stunning that so many people simply refuse to see it. Also, it’s a conspiracy of not very smart, but very influential people. The most terrifying option of all is that this isn’t humble stupidity, this is highly coordinated and advanced stupidity by morons who think they’re geniuses because they’ve talked the desperate and the delusional into buying their nonsense.
In absolute terms, being the least dysfunctional moron in the room does not make you smart.

Yah that makes sense and tracks closely with what I have been observing as well. Appreciate the articulated response. I’d add given the quote you added at the end, that history will most likely be repeating itself whenever this whole debacle collapses in on itself.

That’s the problem tho.

Yeah, see I think it’s taken me a long time to make peace with it, but this admin has been so bizarre I actually think no one’s got the wheel.
