I think and have thought for awhile this is what they are doing. Trump, his party and his tearing down our institutions. I think it is almost complete. They could not pull it off if it were not for the Senate Republicans and them not kicking him out of office when he has committed every crime imaginable and than you have a mob boss Bill Barr who is carrying out his orders. The supreme court is in his pocket,he has Putin already meddling in the election and he is following Putin playbook on how to take over a country and I also think he will not leave and make sure his daughter is the next president unless we can stop them. I am fearful we can't because right now he holds all the power and can use it how he see fit.
