The coup, along with other nefarious plans, was prepared a looooonng time ago.
I'm not an expert but if I had to guess I'd say that the usa is about 60% through being completely overthrown. You've still got time to stop this insanity though.
The most hilarious, yet tragic, thing is you aren't being overthrown by a hostile foreign country. Or evil genius mastermind.
You are being taken over by an old dementia riddled pathological liar and narcissist, that paints itself orange who also raped/rapes children and women.
If I went back to the 90s and wrote a book about a 'rich' hitler loving nepo baby who raped kids becoming president of the us using Russian money, and then taking it over from the inside I would be laughed at. Not one publisher would touch me.
Hell, even if I got rid of the fat cunts 'greatest' hits of child rape, etc, and just focused on the failed reality TV 'star' and all the casino bankruptcies with the blatant corruption becoming president then no publisher would have touched me. Yet here we are.
Trump has the backing of multiple countries that want him to fuck the US up. He also has the backing of the overwhelming majority of billionaires.
This isn't a coup of a reality tv moron....the reality tv moron is being used as a tool by the actual engineers of the coup. Trump isn't smart enough or functional enough to pull off a coup or even conceive of how to do one with outside help. Trump is a functionally illiterate moron of a puppet being propped up by a multi-billion dollar propaganda machine.
The USA is a republic and historically republics do fail from internal factors more than external.
What's funny is apathy is just going to let it happen. Everyone is afraid if losing their healthcare. Who would have thought all it took to cower people is healthcare.
Tragically that was part of the idea of some of those concepts, connecting social security with social control.
For example Alfred Krupp pioneered a lot of those concepts in his business, next to company stores, company apartments, company hospitals and schools he also started having some sort of insurance for his workers, in case of sickness or disability you were secured by the company insurances.
Krupp didn't do this out of the goodness of his heart, in part those programs secured productivity and helped attracting and keeping qualified workers. On the other hand those things were also leverage that could be used against the workers, especially against strikers, unionist, political agitators or social Democrats. Of course workers profited from those programs, but when you live in a company apartment, shop in company stores, go to company hospitals and schools, the company holds your pension and your health insurance all of that can be taken away when you go against Krupp, you'd loose everything.
Like I said up top, it was always a mix of social security and social control.
