(432 posts)Playing out "what will happen" scenarios are incredibly naive because they can't accurately predict opponents, which is the only reason why Trump is still in office.
Team Trump (and team Putin) already know every move in that article is a dead end, and crossed it off the list months or years ago. Psychopaths, in the tradition of Stephen Miller, Roger Stone, and Steve Bannon are likely working on a very novel strategy to stay in power, with creative plans A, B and C that might not be dead ends.
Psychopathic brains are wired differently. They have absolutely no conscience. Subverting democracy and stealing control of the most powerful country in the world is a huge ego trip - and the road to incredible wealth and domination, including power to legally ruin lives, spread terror and kill people.
