They are evil incompetent morons. The administration did not care how many people were killed as long as they could gain politically, retain power and complete the destruction of our Representative Democracy. This has to leave us wondering how many Americans would Trump be willing to sacrifice to maintain his power, and I am not sure that there is an upper limit for a psychopath.
If Trump loses, we may face the most dangerous two and a half months in American history. Imagine the current president as a defeated, petulant, sulking, angry child, with nothing further to lose, who believes that the nation does not deserve to survive his Presidency. It is not too much of a stretch with this man.
When Adolph Hitler realized that the war was lost he decreed that the infrastructure of the nation should be destroyed in the path of the invading armies. He ordered Industrial facilities razed, bridges destroyed, mines flooded, food reserves destroyed, etc. His logic that the Germans were not worthy of surviving in a world without him in charge. There are too many similarities in the personalities of the two men to not look to history for a clue as to what is possible. While Trump could not pull of having the physical infrastructure destroyed, he could still do irreparable damage to the nation with the stroke of a pen, or words incautiously spoken.
We need to face the facts that Trump is insane and have a plan to deal with him if he loses. Perhaps the House should have articles of impeachment ready for a vote the day the election is called with the goal of the shortest transition in the history of the country. If Trump wins, then we will all lose for the foreseeable future.
