Honestly, I don't even think the Trump regime knows whats going on. They're kinda just doing whatever as fast as possible since they know midterms likely won't go their way.

They made the classic mistake of autocracies... they started believing their own propaganda.

Agreed. I can fully see martial law being implemented or an actual civil violence happening just as midterms are about to begin.

According to the EO he signed on Jan 20th it might be sooner. They have 90 days to determine if we should declare a national emergency over the border. April 20th marks 90 days. It's also Hitlers birthday and a pagan holiday.

That too so elon can pretend to be "le epic meme lord"

Hell I wouldn't be the least but surprised if the US is otherwise dissolved by then, actually that'd be kinda funny all fifty states, Puerto Rico, and American Samoa independent with the US only existing in Guam while everyone hashes how who gets what.

I don't think they care about elections very much anymore. They just openly buy them now (combined with all the voter suppression of course). These guys are what the US is stuck with from now on unless forcibly ejected.

I think they don't really know what is going on because they are evil morons, they want everything done right now, without knowing exactly what "everything" is except more grifting and pleasing Putin.
