Trump has spent today revealing he binge-watched MSNBC this morning and was particularly incensed that Stephanie Ruhle said that he's "backed into a corner" and is now "looking for an exit" in his self-imposed global trade war.

This week two institutions chose to work with Trump rather than fight for the principles that a free, democratic society depends on. They did not simply obey in advance, but responded to Trump’s hostile threats by conceding defeat and bending to his will.

What Trump and Musk want is to produce so much cultural, economic, political and juridical chaos that it shortly becomes a vicious circle whose seeming "natural" endpoint is a declaration of martial law and the further declaration that American democracy is not working anymore and must be abandoned.

Mass protests will be met with mass arrests and mass violence against protesters.
I'm not saying that that means mass protests shouldn't happen, I'm simply explaining why I fear that we are now on rails: mass protests to mass arrests, mass arrests to mass violence, mass violence to martial law.

You must understand that the people Trump has partnered with are Yarvinists. That means they're _expressly_ calling for an end to our democracy and the creation of a technomonarchistic society with Trump as a CEO-cum-dictator.
These are _not_ people hiding their ultimate ambitions for this country.

They do not care about Jews. They do not care about what today's students are saying about the war in Gaza. They are laying the groundwork for a massive repression of freedom to assemble, as they fear the pushback against the end of American democracy will begin on college and university campuses.

I believe the arrests of students that are happening now, and the massive federal investigations of 60+ colleges and universities just launched, are happening because Trump and Musk know that civil disobedience often starts in higher education settings. They're trying to kill resistance in its crib.

It's people just awakening to what was obvious to many a decade ago who can't believe that anyone would say that we're past the point of no return.
But if you've been following American politics since the middle of last decade, you know how many opportunities to fight for our democracy we missed.

For those angry at this assessment, understand that your anger is a fraction of mine—as the way I came to this conclusion is not defeatism but an awareness that the key decision points for our country began arriving in 2016.
We're in the tenth year of doing nothing.

If that happens and Democrats sweep into power, perhaps an impeachment and removal could somehow happen. But that's a slender reed to hang one's hopes upon.

Anyone with any conscience in what was formerly the GOP is no longer in any position of influence in the party.

Trump and Musk will declare vile pretexts for things they were always going to do. Maybe they'll declare Judge Jackson a DEI hire and say they can ignore 5-4 rulings against them. Maybe they'll get Turley or Yoo to disagree with the Court and say they can go with a supposed legal expert over SCOTUS.

How many signs of democratic collapse do we need?
A push to impeach judges not for misconduct but defying Trump? Refusal to honor a court order to turn around planes? Trump invoking the Alien Enemies Act outside wartime? A budget clearing him to ignore Congress? Jailing students?
The list goes on.
