Is it Trump's goal to start a Civil War?

[bloom]

Is that why the January 6th event?

Is that why he kept classified documents?

Does he want to be arrested so that his base lose their minds and start shooting up the place?

This is my guess. It was what Steve Bannon wanted to have happen.

They expect to profit mightily. Become like Putin. Reap the spoils of war - the desecrated U.S. of A.

1. Whatever it takes.

6. To...

Destroy the country.

[dchill]

7. Like a Bizarro God, he wants everything remade...

...in his image - of himself. So he can hate it.

2. "I would have butchered the whole world...if you would only love me!"

3. Apparently

And it wouldn't last all that long. Bunch of overweight middle aged men shitting themselves when their opponents actually own guns too and fire back

4. If burning down the country keeps himself out of jail.

Sure, he'll do it. He's already trying.

5. Democrats (and his opponents in general)

messed up his January 6th attempt by not rioting & NOT making it worse than it was.


It will be interesting to see how it all unfolds.

8. Putins goal

[bloom]

9. yes. and Trump is happy to comply. n/t

[UTUSN]

10. His "goal" is to crave "love"

[Retrograde]

11. Does he think he can profit from it?

If so, yes.

Actually, I think he kept the docs so he could sell them or otherwise use them as leverage when the notes on his properties come due - is it this year or next year?

[brush]

12. His attempted coup failed on Jan. 6th. So no...

he shot his wad then and now he's waiting to see in the DOJ indicts him for selling info/names of out international, covert operatives (he sold out our spooks to who knows who)

[Phoenix61]

13. No, of course not. He is driven by greed and the desire for revenge.

He couldn’t care less how his actions impact those around him.

[anarch]

14. I suspect that was one potential goal he was given, or at least encouraged to foment

I don't think he personally cares that much, but his handlers wanted to do the most extensive damage they possibly could to the U.S.

[Thtwudbeme]

15. No, he does not. It's not fun golfing with bullets flying around. He wants to be

even wealthier than he is, and think that people....all people....adore him.

He's a delusional deranged asshat that has no idea how badly he is despised; he raised kids that have pathetic Daddy issues....and married women who looked good on his arm.

16. It may be more accurate to say it is Bannon's goal / Putin's goal

And they push Trump to do these things that Democrats have no choice but to hold him to account.

It continues to be worrisome to me the degree to which my Trump-loving siblings support him. Go along with ideas like that 'Obama did it too' and such nonsense.

I am sure that leading Democrats are concerned with civil unrest should Trump ever be arrested or jailed.

17. Of course it is,

but here's the thing, most of these MAGAt's have never faced hostile fire, their idea of combat experience are the video games they play, games like Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, etc,, these wanna be's would drop a load in their pants and run back home to cower in fear once the actual shooting starts and they're on the receiving end of fire from well trained, well equipped SWAT teams, like the FBI's HRT, those that choose to stand and fight will quickly be put down.

Now they could do hit and run tactics or assassinations, but once the images of law enforcement officers or officials deaths are broadcast, any support these MAGAt traitors had will quicky evaporate and they will be hunted down and either arrested or killed.
