@emptywheel You're very generous. -
@joanneleon Not meant to be generous. I think they've got an vast overestimation of their own ability to control situation. -
@emptywheel I agree they seem to have vast overestimation of their abilities which makes no sense given the recent history (over & over) -
@joanneleon Not even just that. Willingness to keep failing using same method would be funny if it weren't so dangerous. -
@emptywheel Well then any rational person must ask themselves, what was the real goal? -
@joanneleon Actually don't think that is universally true. I think there's tremendous cognitive capture though. -
@emptywheel We'll see who gets SecDef job. If it's an R2P/neocon, we'll know what the objectives are. World war.
