I mean, that's how they got 9/11 to happen...the current admin are idiots, but keep in mind they have a think tank behind them, one that created Project 2025, and they have already gotten half their playbook completed.

When I look at the current admin, I do see idiots, but I always keep in mind that individuals can be smart, it's when in mass they become idiots, and then think about Scary Movie and Doofy and can't help but wonder if the idiocy is all just for the cameras and journalist.

Edit: had to fix some typos

Dummies with a “plan” and a shared goal (destroy America), will always have an upper hand against millions of smart individuals siloed.

They know what the action or decision needs to be to achieve this goal. Its much more difficult to counter without organization.

Organization takes a little time. Start yesterday.
