Yes, I mean what I try to do is look at what they are doing and what that might mean. We know Donny loves Orban and his ilk. So, not a surprise really that he is here fooling around at Trump's club and meeting with right wing nuts. I think, overall that's a mistake for Trump and the right wing goon squad to be openly meeting with and celebrating a bag of dung like Viktor, it just clearly shows who and what they are. I mean, sure the Christian Nationalists that like the Donald love Orban...but again this is just a portion of Trump's voters. So, he is only appealing to the freak show right doing this. Not everybody wants to be part of the freak show. So, I think he shrinks his base with this stuff. 

I saw some videos over the weekend of people at what I think was the Ohio Trump rally, though it could have been somewhere else, dressed in their Trump gear saying "Russia is with us! Putin is with Trump!" and obviously not comprehending how idiotic and horrible that sounded. 

There is that portion of Trump supporters that think Putin and Russia are great. They have no issue with Putin trying to interfere with an election to help Donny. To them, I guess, Putin is a cool tough guy. He's doing it right, killing anybody that runs against him and rigging every election so it looks like he won in a landslide...Trump is trying to institute that playbook here and he's got a bunch of hideous people trying to assist him from these "right wing think tanks and groups" and new ones seem to show up all the time. I read about another one over the weekend that people are very concerned about. I can't even keep all their names straight there seem to be so many. 

Basically, here is what I think is happening. Trump just does not have the numbers to win an election. The math just does not work. I believe he knows this, people working to help him know this, everybody paying attention knows this. I think the scum on Trump's side may actually be fine with this because what they really are going to test here is not if Trump can win an election, what they want to test is if they can just take an election he lost. I believe they will throw everything at that because Trump is one of the few that will shamelessly and brutally be the frontman for something like that. 

So, basically they have to do it this time, Trump is already too old, already showing signs of severe decline, and they do not have a back-up. Ron DeSantis was not it, he does not enrage people the way Trump does and never will. Trump is kind of unique in his ability to inspire anger and hate and is probably the most successful divider of our society to ever hold public office. He can make people hate each other like nobody's business. 

So, this is it, all the eggs are in the 2024 basket for them and it is not about getting the most votes, everybody knows he won't, it is about taking this election even if he loses in a giant landslide. 

This to me, is what we are facing and what will be very painful for this country. This is why the RNC no longer exists and no longer matters. They only have to get one candidate in, Donald Trump, and let him start arresting and more than likely killing his opponents. Democrats, like immigrants, will just be declared enemies of the state, and I can hear Trump now saying "We have no choice. We have to do this. These people are destroying our country!" and these people will start with immigrants, move into media, entertainment, educators, politicians, anybody and everybody that points out what Trump is doing is wrong. All that go against him. 

So, you don't need the RNC helping to elect Republicans down ballot, you just need Trump, and he will start punishing everybody on his enemies list...and he's got the longest list we have ever seen and Trump cares nothing for any other human being. So, killing innocents to him, is no more an issue than putting on his orange make-up. 

Honestly, it seems glaringly obvious this is the plan. These people, the ones meeting with Orban, what they are gearing up for, is to get Trump in and then unleash the brutal destruction of this country. They don't care about down ballot candidates, Trump will shift things to installing the people of his choice if he takes the White House. 

He has nothing to lose now, he is in deep financial trouble, if he loses this election all his delaying of his trials won't matter. He will then still get prosecuted. 

So, this is it. This is the moment they will throw everything at forcibly taking a US election. They don't care about votes, how much they lose by, if Democrats pick-up seats in the Senate or House...none of that is in play for them. It's get Trump in, then hostile takeover. 

Trump will declare that every election where a Democrat won was rigged and he "must" correct the outcome and install his choice. 

Nothing looks normal about what the "Republican" party is doing. They do not look like they are preparing to win elections, their behavior says the exact opposite. They look like they are preparing to lose and then attempt to take the White House by force. 

That's what I see when I look at the article David posted about Arizona. When I look at the takeover and destruction of the RNC. When I look at the meetings with Orban, elected Republicans working with a Russian spy to use false information to try to impeach Biden, all of the stupid but intentional moves they are making. 

They are not trying to win. Their candidate for president is charged with 91 felonies and is now in extreme personal financial peril. He is asking foreign entities to help him deal with his money problems. He literally has a "For Sale" sign up to whomever wants to help bail him out. He is totally compromised as a politician and he is expecting personal payoffs to him as how he conducts foreign policy decisions. Everything goes to the highest bidder. 

If he can get in, if they can take an election by force that he lost, everything comes into play. 

This is it, they are all in.
