    Let’s see how this goes before gloating.
    Obviously Trump is insane, and congress failed to stop him by waiting to interfere when it was obviously imminent, until it was too late.
    The propaganda is very likely to turn the tide on public opinion, that’s what happened with Geoge Bush when he invaded Iraq.
    People who opposed it were called all sorts of names, like anti American, against the troops, and stuff like that.
    Then it turned to an overwhelming majority supported the war.

      Monday is going to be interesting in the context of the federal legislature. It’s kind of a make or break moment. I am fairly sure that part of the reason for the timing of this shit was so that they’d have maximum time over the weekend to fuck around without Congress interfering. I’m honestly mildly surprised the orange regime didn’t wait for a recess.
