How this all goes down might depend on whoās whispering in his ear at any given moment in time. But Iām sure thereās at least some people in the room who wouldnāt mind if LA was just wiped off the map.

I think part of the problem here is also that Trump has dementia, and is being guided by a group of advisors that probably donāt even necessarily agree with what their end goal is here (besides consolidating power).

Which leads to questions like, āIf the soldiers wonāt do urban LA warfare, when does the regime call in air strikes? What if the pilots wonāt do it?ā I mean, this has the potential to escalate in some truly insane ways.

All of these people are unpredictable bc they are making decisions based on alien world views. I think theyāre gonna TRY unimaginable violence. Whether or not it works? Yeah⦠I share your doubts about the American military being down for urban warfare in LA.

Some of these folks are Christian nationalists who probably wouldnāt mind if Armageddon happened bc it would usher in the second coming. Some of these folks would welcome a chance for the world to burn so they could build a white ethnostate from its ashesā¦

I think that thereās been a general hesitancy among people to consider the methods that the regime might be willing to go to in order to consolidate / keep power. I think a lot of people are making the mistake of thinking that the people making the decisions are sane.

I think that we should absolutely take seriously the regimeās intention to commit boots on the ground, and enact significant violence against civilians. The thing that I really worry about is that (for the reasons you mentioned) this is going to spiral out of control.

Terry Moran is just stating objective truth here. This is not opinion. It is factual and relevant.

Although this is also probably not the time to go applying for a Green Card, bc itās just being to bring you to the Fedsā attention. Like, what heās saying mightāve been true once, but Iām extremely certain it isnāt NOW.
