I could assassinate DJT in any number of ways, and never be blamed for it. Each of my assassination plots would be designed to weaken and confuse the MAGA folk and steer the political narrative in exactly the direction I set for it.
But I would NOT assassinate DJT. I would exploit his fame and influence for my agenda.
My first step would be to wear him down mercilessly with unjust lawfare. Countless harassment lawsuits. Countless run-ins with lawless judges who would bully him into exhaustion. The frivolous cases would carry the very real threat of taking away his financial empire and forcing him into prison until he was 89 years old. Yes, we would make provision for a Secret Service detail to operate near his cell, but prison is prison. It’s lonely. No more Trump rallies. No more flatterers in the executive suite.
Yes, he has been characteristically defiant of all the injustice. He has punched a few bullies in the nose. For now, the lawsuits and mugshots strengthen his base support, even with Blacks and Hispanics and Zoomers. All the better for my overall plan.
But today, finally, the endless subpoenas are wearing him down. It’s almost time to act.
At his weakest point I would step in for the art of the deal. A very simple deal: I would throw all my influence behind him to give him a landslide victory mandate in the November election. Guaranteed. I would also tell the unjust courts to back off.
What does he give me in return? Two very simple things. My choice for (a Deep State) VP, and my choice for (a Deep State) Chief of Staff, who will guide him in personnel and daily policy decisions.
In this way all my policies would be championed by a popular, aggressive personality, who will not be suspected of being a compromised, “insider,” puppet politician. MAGA folks would be on my side and never suspect it.
Conclusion:
If you see DJT choosing a deeply establishment someone like Tim Scott for VP, or Susan Wiles for Chief of Staff, you might well wonder if he accepted my offer to make his life easier, and my promises to support him as the next president. And support him I would. With all the assets of the Deep State. Until, of course, as president, he breached the terms of the deal. Then the VP is my instantaneous remedy. My convenient insurance policy.
Bill Madden writes, "Refusing illegal orders in the military is difficult to do because they normally are generated high in the chain of command and very few officers in the chain really know what is or is not a legal order. Immediate superiors can be very demanding and the orders are usually given in high pressure environments. Refusing an illegal military order is tantamount to whistleblowing and, as much good as it does for the concept of truth, the whistleblower’s life is made miserable as a punishment for his honesty and a warning to others."
I watched this happen with Army Spec Michael New during the Clinton years. He disobeyed an illegal Clinton order, was arrested on base in Germany, was then given an unjust, unconstitutional trial, and then a Bad Conduct Discharge. But he stood his ground the whole time and has been proven right since.
“Fact check; not locking down at all (like Sweden) would have saved lives in UK. Hard to believe how much money the UK spent on its sham covid inquiry.”
--Jay Bhattacharya
The UK Covid-19 Inquiry cost millions. It finally released the core political chapters of its long-awaited report. After nearly three years of hearings, millions of documents, and tens of millions of pounds spent on legal fees, the conclusion is now unmistakably clear.
They’ve learned nothing, even while watching millions suffer from lockdowns and vaccination.
Worse, they may not want to learn. The Inquiry’s structure, its analytical frame, even its carefully curated narrative all point in the same direction: away from the possibility that Britain’s pandemic response was fundamentally misguided.
Not the personal sub;
the private American car. Americans owe $1.66 trillion in auto debt. Delinquencies just hit levels not seen since the Great Financial Crisis. Nearly 30% of all trade-ins are underwater. Average amount owed: $7,000 more than their cars are worth.
Auto loans are now a bigger consumer debt category than student loans (8.9%) and significantly larger than credit cards (6.6%).
So is that shiny late model vehicle a blessing, or a curse?
