OT: American Politics

it’s more chaotic than you think, according to WSJ

First of all, it’s scary that Miler is the voice of reason

Miller expressed concern that excessively antagonizing Mexico could jeopardize the country’s ongoing cooperation to interdict migrants attempting to reach the U.S. border, some of the people said.

Secondly, Canadian officials were not sure that Trump knew about their border plans announced in December

Canadian officials said they had been touting the plan to reinforce the border with new choppers and other technology to border czar Tom Homan and other Trump officials for weeks. Canadian ministers had even sent videos of their helicopters and a time-lapse video of the border to Homan to prove that the border was well-guarded, but Homan told Fox News on Sunday that he still hadn’t briefed Trump on what he had seen of the Canadian plans, and would do so later in the week.

It hard to brief up when POTUS is hacking through a double bogey on the 14th at Doral.

what about the daily briefing that every president has to read--oh. Nevermind.

How protesting goes under Trump is going to be a major litmus test on whether they have a democracy anymore. If these get persistent and big, and we see the Proud Boys start to evolve into brown shirts, this becomes more than just an administrative coup, which is what they're on the cusp of now imo. There's a big, big difference between Orban authoritarianism and Putin/Xi authoritarianism.
