Like everything else with this fraud of a presidency, the Committee to Reopen America is just an illusion, a lie that doesn't convince anyone but is only told because people expect a lie to be told.

We have to understand: Trump isn't there to help anyone

Authoritarian regimes blend the illusion of competency and outright fraud. Releasing a Committee to Reopen America that is obviously unequipped and devoid of experts provides an illusion with a message to everyone that reality doesn't matter.

It's meant to break our will.
It's organized crime operating behind the veneer of legitimacy. Everyone knows the crime is being committed. Everyone sees it. And as they see it and as nothing is done it just communicates that the law doesn't matter.

This is how authoritarians work. We're knee-deep in it.
The Committee To Reopen America is an affront, an obvious insult. It tells the American people and anyone paying attention that they're not even trying to hide their apathy and malfeasance.

This is how authoritarians break the will of their societies.
