Comment on The Think Tank Behind Project 2025 Just Published Trump's Iran War Plan
MRLimcon@lemmy.ml 2 weeks agoYeah, but the people that are doing this gave this power to him, putting people in the government that are loyal to him, not to any other person in congress/supreme court.
He took the government like Sulla, took out any person that he disliked and put loyalists there. Sulla divided the Senate, etc, but after just took the power from them. This book and CGP Grey talk in a way of following some rules that are out of the window and I think this situation is more like what Maquiavelli describes in the “taking a new state for yourself”, he cleaned the slate, this people have only institutional power, but there are no more rules as the people in real power, in the executive branch, are totally loyal to him.
He told AIPAC to go fuck themselves (metaphorically) and seems to dislike Netanyahu, this is unprecendented for the fascist party, but not to him. He took their missiles and sent them to Ukraine. I think he took absolute power already, The Heritage Foundation and the other republicans can only complain, I think he makes the rules now.
This is my analysis, but only the future will show.
