    I think this is exactly Trump’s strategy: get everyone talking about crazy scheme #1 while actions #2 and #3 slip by hardly noticed.

      Another thing that I’ve noticed is that his crazy antics are diverting attention from the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

      In the end, there isn’t much you can do about it. If you ignore the most crazy stuff to focus more on #2 and #3, then the #1 won’t be noticed and may succeed despite its crazyness. Doing enough bad stuff in a short time span just doesn’t allow for enough focus to build a meaningful opposition.

      And if you in parallel tear down all checks and balances and scare people with jobloss or other measures that doesn’t really help to form a movement.
