There is bloodshed because the Trump administration has created their own version of Brown Shirts very much modeled on what the Nazi party did. It's filled will unstable, violent thugs that intimidate and kill to increase Trump's power. They are NOT targeting only immigrants. They are targeting anyone who disagrees with their white Christian nationalist ideology.

    Actually, it was Bush Jr. and his cronies who created this depraved gang in 2003 -allegedly in response to the attacks of September 11, 2001. Their mission has always been to put fascist ideology into practice.

    That was an internal purge where they killed all the weird or gay Nazis. You're thinking of glass evening.

    Well, Lady G was just relieved of existence. Listening to Stephen Miller sounds like they want to make their Long Knives out of broken glass. I think they're running out of time so they'll probably try a double episode.

    You're panicking and projecting that behavior onto your enemies without thinking about how they think.

    I think they're trapped rats backed into a corner. Things are getting desperate for them and they're coming up against some deadlines. Desperate times lead to desperate measures. You're welcome to sit back and think they'll be bumbling and incompetent, I'll prepare by thinking they're cunning and evil.

    Trapped rats are still making rational decisions. Literal trapped rats. As far as the information and ability they have.

    Fascists are a little worse, but they know they aren't capable of going both at the same time, their coalition is already fracturing in the entropy of victory as always happens to broad coalitions, and I don't see how they're particularly cornered.

    Genuinely think you're wrong about every part of what you're saying.

    That makes 2 of us! They're trying the usual strategy of throwing a ton of shit and seeing what sticks. As soon as something does they'll move forward huge and fast. They have to.
