It was about a thing that got stronger as it ate the people trying to kill it. Every time it ate someone it grew more powerful. Trump is like that. He truly loves the power he has right now. He is a kid in a candy store. Every time he fires someone, or puts out an executive order he gets an erection.

a veritable blitzkrieg. I'm beginning to think a national strike is needed. something, anything to stop the momentum towards fascism...

the usag can be fired at any time.

nixon's saturday night massacre was because he wanted an independent special prosecutor fired, which he couldn't do, but which the usag could do. so he kept firing usags until he found one who would fire the independent special prosecutor. that's rather different from what donnie is doing here.

what donnie is doing is more petty than anything else, and creating more chaos.
