The incompetence in the first administration often meant that there was no one around to turn Trump's tweets into an actionable policy that would get past the people running the show in the cabinet agencies, complied with the APA, and could survive contact with the judiciary.

I 1000% understand this psychological impulse to lean into the doom, but I spent a lot of years covering these jabronis and it’s not like they *suddenly* got super competent.

Of course there's more than this. Prove it. Support it.

I would love nothing more than to be proven wrong!
There's a wide range of the worst policies, with mass deportation #1 on the list, that incompetent implementation doesn't make any better.
Incompetence means they're bad at *making law.* But lawlessness is easy by comparison. Let the cops and deporters run wild on everyone. Easy.

Stephen Miller is *just fine* with that kind of "incompetence."

A shitty concentration camp can be as or more harmful than a well run one.
Trump et al are a wrecking crew. Their plan is foolproof in the worst way.
1) Smashing things
2) Hurting people
3) Consolidating power
With any luck they smash too much & hurt too few people that we can make it through before the power suck is too great.
The power vacuum battle could get messy.
For example: Latinos for Trump.
As for the response, I'm not sure. We can't give up, but I think the odds are stacked in his favor.
I care because it will mean horrific things, but do THEY care about breaking some eggs to make an omelette?

I think if the inevitable happen and the IRL Turner Diaries is attempted your going to have to be thinking like 1776 and not just let America turn in to 1930's Germany.
