If Stephen Miller is reading DU today, Des Moines is toast.

I agree with you fully. As Malcolm X often said, don't aim for the puppet, aime for the puppeteer. Wise man, he was.

I've long enjoyed the study of systems. Erich Fromm wrote some amazingly insightful things that apply here. While the system that Trump fronts will continue long after he is gone, at this time, they are fully connected to him. And they will remain so, until they can no longer capitalize upon him.

As he spins further out of control, we have a golden opportunity to use Trump against them.
