Suppose you were trying to topple American democracy.

Q: What would you do at this moment?

Remember, Biden is way ahead in all the polls, and Trump's approval is underwater.

A: You would unleash a bunch of chaos agents with a message like this 👇

1/2
Recall that one goal of Active Measures is to get people to lose confidence in democratic processes, because that's the quickest and easiest way to kill democracy.

Don't help the chaos agents. Okay?

2/2
Trump's "base" doesn't need to turn away from him.

His base is less than 40% of the population.

Winning elections doesn't require getting everyone.

You need an electoral majority. Check out the polls in the swing states.
I can guarantee Trump will find more ways to create crisis and spectacle between now and his exit from the White House in January.

Personally I think Trump is too much of a coward to start a war.

Wars cause property damage and a bomb might fall on his head.

He prefers crises he manufactures, and spectacle that thrills his base.

Like Barr's stunt today.
