As a political party, when you've lied your ass off....
about practically everything under the sun, and the extent and depth of those lies have caused death and destruction on a wide scale, and your politically connected cronies have benefitted monetarily,

You tend to want to become a dictatorial state.

The depth and scale of corruption within this administration and the republican party is soo great that they need war as a distraction from the political firestorm that could possibly sweep them out of office if this were a true functioning democracy with an aggressive "truth-seeking" press.

3. We might want the detention camps after all
After we've prosecuted all of those who have been complicit in the crimes of this administration.

4. We have finally become Amerika
We've got the gulags, the torture, the wiretapping and government-sponsored terrorist attacks against citizens and politicians.

Now all we need are gigantic shows of our military armament.
