anyone of the absurd nonsense being spewed necessarily (although there are the true believers) its about confusing people so they dont know whats really going on, wearing us down to the point of giving up. It really doesnt matter if Trump is truly senile or not, if he believes what he's say ing or not, if its all his invention/ strategy or if he is simply a useful savant for more disciplined insurrectionists (have yall read anything of Steve Bannon or the white supremacist/nationalist types.) Doesnt matter, effect is the same, its bulldozing us into accepting what not too long ago used to be unfathomable.
