I know that a lot of folks are worried about the problematic big names going into nomination, and for good reason. Some of them know just enough to be dangerous, while most of the rest are thoroughly clueless. But I think the nomination fight is a distraction.👇🏿
I think it may be more useful to keep an eye on the deputies and lower-level appointments. Many, if not all, of those folks will be ideologues, extremists, fanatics, Christian zealots, and undoubtedly Russian assets. That's not being paranoid, that's simply being real.👇🏿
Furthermore, many of those lower-level appointments will have enough knowledge, experience and background to real damage to government and governance. So, while the politicians have us focused on the circus, the government will be stripped down, vandalized and destroyed.👇🏿
Those people will come highly recommended by outside groups, organizations, corporations and governments who have specific agendas and stand to gain from Trump.👇🏿
So, we may be wise not to get caught up in the slurry of slime and scandals being revealed and paraded. That's the show. But if we haven't learned by now, it's high time to learn that when politicians and media point us in specific directions, we need to resist.
