    It’s ‘flooding the zone’, everything’s a distraction from everything else, no one can keep up with the awful bs, because they don’t care about the consequences besides lining their pockets or grabbing power.

      Yes, but they’re not doing all these things in order to “flood the zone”. Flooding the zone is not the objective, it’s the side effect.

      Their objective is simply to implement an unassailable authoritarian class based regime. They’re just doing that because no one can or will or is standing in their way. Everyone is waiting for checks and balances and courts and elections while they take control of the media, create a new military branch, and undermine elections.

      Flooding the zone is just the natural outcome of doing all the awful things you want with no consequences.

        I mean sure, further establishing their authoritarian regime is the intended effect, but flooding the zone is an intentional tactic to achieve that. It’s been Trump’s modus operandi from the beginning.
