I don't believe that Trump is making all these decisions.

He’s not smart enough to decide how to pseudo-legally mangle all these laws.
I know Stephen Miller is giving him instructions but who are the other masterminds that are itching to make America a fascist dictatorship? They truly hate America and want to destroy everything positive that makes our country what it is. Looks like they are ready to burn everything to the ground in order to achieve their aim.

We should be hearing about these monsters by name because they are the true traitors.
Trump is just the blustering frontman that they manipulate.

And have thought this for a while. He is like the Wizard of Oz - all booming and thunder on the surface. Underneath I suspect he spends his days playing with his food and looking for witticisms on truth social to repost.

Trump doesn't have the brains, the fortitude or the knowhow to carry out his schemes.

....but he may not have the mental acuity to come up with all of them. He conceivably could come up with some of them. though. Herr Miller and Herr Vought may be the greater minds behind the rest.
