Look for the incompetence
All of you reading this can very clearly see the corruption and insanity going on with the Trump regime now. From Donald Trump’s psychotic foreign policy stunts, to Elon Musk’s attempted takeover of numerous government agencies, everything is being set on fire at once. It’s tricky to even figure out where and how to fight back.
I’m going to point to one angle that I think is really important. That’s the overwhelming incompetence of this Trump regime. Whenever I talk about incompetence, some folks get confused and think I’m saying that the Trump regime won’t do much damage because it’s too incompetent. But that’s not what I’m saying at all. When you’re in charge of important things, incompetent evil can be even more dangerous and harmful than competent evil.
But incompetence does give us a way in. It’s a starting point. This week the Trump regime announced that Panama had agreed to waive all canal fees for U.S. ships. Then Panama announced that no such agreement happened. The whole thing served to make Trump look like a weak idiot in the eyes of the general public. It’s a talking point we can use about what a moron this guy is.
And for all the corrupt evil that Elon Musk’s DOGE is doing, the agency also just saw its third high profile controversial resignation in two weeks. Given what a small headcount this fake agency had to begin with, DOGE is now hemorrhaging staff. It’s harder for a team of henchmen to move quickly when team members keep quitting mid-heist. So this is also something we can exploit. Musk can’t move as quickly as he wants to. This buys us a little more time as the court rulings against DOGE start to come in.
Speaking of court rulings, so far this Trump regime has lost pretty much every court ruling that’s come down about its actions. The courts have already (at least temporarily) shut down Trump’s war on birthright citizenship, his federal worker buyout scam, his attempt at cutting off federal assistance, and even DOGE’s attempted takeover of the Treasury.
You have to be really incompetent to immediately lose every one of those rulings, but that’s what the Trump regime has done. No one in this Trump regime is smart enough to figure out how to craft these evil initiatives in such a manner that the courts would feel compelled to let them stand. In each instance the courts have been able to find immediate cause to intervene. And every court ruling against Trump serves to slow him down, as we attempt to hold down the fort and run out the clock on his first hundred days, after which the laws of politics say he’ll have less political muscle.
Again, everyone reading this understands how corrupt, evil, extremist, and dangerous this Trump regime is. So I don’t see much point in all of us sitting around “sounding the alarm” to each other about it. I say let’s look for the Trump regime’s incompetence at every turn, and let’s use that incompetence as our way in for sabotaging everything the Trump regime is trying to do.
