Trump the dumpster fire seems to thrive on television and movie memes: Game of Thrones and DC’s Gotham Universe seem to be favorites. I was commenting on another thread, here, when suddenly patterns started popping in my head. My subsequent comment got too long, so I’m finishing it here. So the original thread lies on this Diary: Trump tried to dump asylum-seekers in sanctuary cities to 'retaliate against political adversaries and I was responding to this comment by boran2:
Wait, leaving asylum seekers in places that would be receptive to their presence, that’s a plan to punish sanctuary cities? Perhaps Mr. MIller has been overestimated.
My response and rant:
Oh, no. I think that little SOB is setting people up for “false flag” attacks by Trump supporters in these cities, possibly assassinations.
And if that sounds paranoid, I know it does. And I know that I sound like Chicken Little. Nevertheless, I think we are about to be in for it.
Why would I say this?
Because I see the patterns forming, and Stephen Miller and Trump are going to war. And … my comment is turning into a diary.
Miller is like many a dangerous sociopath, he thinks he’s smarter than he is and smarter than everyone else, he thinks his would-be victims are dumb, instead of unsuspecting, and he has nothing good in mind. Miller is far more dangerous — he wants a race war, immigrant purges, suppression of free society (remember “Trump will NOT be challenged!” and how he looked afterwards?).
People like Trump and Miller find one another, always and team up. And the smarter/more malignant one will dominate the dumb one, and push the dumb one out as the public face. And if the dumb one has a public face already??
We all know how easily Trump is flattered and manipulated into compliance. And the uglier the idea, especially if it targets people Trump doesn’t like, the more he’s all in. And the other monsters, toadies, and boot-lickers in our government have clustered around them.
Meanwhile, Bannon is over in Europe busy organizing white nationalist attacks and protests against the Pope and the Catholic Church (for not supporting white nationalism in Europe just like the last time this sh*t started) and helping like-minded groups plot against Europe’s more democratic leaders and societies.
I am seeing patterns that seem to have the same nexus (people closely/formerly associated with tRump and friendly to Russia and SA) and it is alarming. Bannon is more anarchist than white nationalist, but if espousing nationalism will burn the house of government down, then Bannon’s your boy.
Ladies and Gentlemen, these people, these Deplorables, are moving towards their final offensive against what our country used to represent.
Note: recognizing and extending patterns at the lowest level and shaping advance planning to anticipate how those patterns are unfolding and how to exploit them, is what I do best. I shaped my entire life and career around those skills, and when I see a pattern, I’m rarely wrong about how I see it unfolding. I might miss a side excursion, but seldom miss on the net direction and movement ...
I love military strategy, campaigning, planning. I’m also a rabid gamer (war games, MMORGS).
My professional credentials in summary: research chemist and engineer whose bread and butter was once made “designing, growing, and characterizing nano-structures in materials, exploring reaction kinetics, nano-chemistry, and surface science of them, and molecular pattern recognition (crystallography, surface science, micro-kinetics). I love chaos theory (it’s a hobby). I am not a linear thinker, and while it keeps me outside the box, I drive other people — linear thinkers — nuts. So try bear with me — I’m getting to the point.
I am a life-long chess player from the age of 5, a musician, the daughter and grand-daughter of combat veterans, the sister of combat veterans, the aunt and cousin of more combat veterans. What is common to all of these things in my background are the patterns, tactics, advance planning — the underlying strategy.
I can see what is happening among the weeds around what Miller has been up to of late, of where Trump may be going with his next campaign. I never thought MIller so close to Trump to be making policy, but he is. Someone on Laurence O’Donnell’s show was calling him the de facto chief of staff: he’s so close now, that he’s in conflict with Kushner with respect to influence — and he’s winning. Miller, not Trump, may be our biggest existential threat. He’s much more closely tied into the far right nut jobs than Trump. He’s been cementing relationships right under our noses in plain sight while we’ve been watching the circus side show.
The NEW power behind the throne is not the Kushners. It’s Miller, Trump’s pet Nazi.
Meanwhile, it’s time for us to get outside the boxes to watch this little monster.
Trump really has gone to war against the rest of us, and it’s going to hit us in the face in the next six months, as the elections swing into high gear and he picks off and destroys whomever is near to rising to the top in the primaries, on our side.
