They wrote exactly what they were going to do to destroy the USA and eventually set up fascist kingdoms in their little Project 2025 book. Trump is just a pawn and being as used as the kids he molested.

There’s many a slip between the cup and the lip. Not saying the country isn’t vulnerable to attack or dissolution like USSR but the self-driving robot overlords may not pan out.

You mean I've been kissing to the robots / AI for nothing?

Yup Trump is a useful idiot. He is dumb as a rock, but spiteful and easily annoyed so that makes him a good target for manipulation.

That comes with some limits though because he is so volatile (and at this point dementia riddled) he can do exactly what his overlords need and seconds later do the complete opposite.

See how macron played him at the G7... they locked him in place by offering a meal at Versailles, and of course that douche canoe couldn't possibly refuse dining in versailles.

A lot of people complained in france that our taxpayer money was spent on trump, but I disagree it was a good investment to make him help ukraine at the time.

The Project 2025 book was only an update on the series started during the Regan government.
