      There's been a lot of this percolating on the hard-right -- that the protests are some sort of Deep State/Soros/Globalist color revolution plot. Not surprised Trump is picking it up. And now it'll become GOP orthodoxy.https://twitter.com/Acyn/status/1300620978305736704 …

      The President claims people in the dark shadows who control the streets are really controlling Biden. He goes on to talk about a plane full of people wearing black uniforms but then says he can’t reveal anymore because it’s under investigation pic.twitter.com/AAk5GX0eWu

      A lot of the whacky stuff Trump says makes more sense once you realize the far-right audience he's addressing. The common argument now on the right is that protests are covert coup engineered by Soros/Globalists - a variation of Judeo-Bolshevik trope.https://twitter.com/Acyn/status/1300620978305736704 …

      My column on the logic of Trump's incitement & conspiracy mongering -- to not just rile up base but also delegitimize election if Trump loses.https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/trump-election-civil-war/ …

      Thing is, even if Biden wins, America is going to have serious governance problems. Trump is making sure of that.

          Probably the most reassuring thing I've read is that Trump doesn't have the respect of the military to become a dictator. That said, Trump losing and tweeting about how unfair it was from an exotic island riling up your domestic terrorists seems very likely

          Damn it, haven't you got the guts to say the same of the Democrats if they lose since it's all we've seen for four the last four years. It's the new normal.
