People need to understand that Donald Trump is an authoritarian and that authoritarians are defined by their insecurity and incompetence.

They are incapable of forming communities, will inevitably make a problem worse, and then find any scapegoat.

This vilification of Dr. Anthony Fauci was always going to happen. Authoritarians HATE experts because their very existence is proof that the authoritarian doesn& #39;t possess all knowledge as a sole entity.

What we& #39;re watching now is the desperate scapegoating stage.

What I& #39;m talking about is a predictable cycle that occurs with authoritarians.

They will fail. They will lie. They will scapegoat experts, vulnerable populations, and then claim a conspiracy against them.

They& #39;ll use that "conspiracy" to demand more power.

Once you have an authoritarian in power, there will always be a crisis. That crisis is inevitable because authoritarians are inherently incompetent.

When they blame their failures on the conspiracy, they demand more power to crush the conspiracy. It& #39;s a cycle. See it.

As things get worse for Trump, both in terms of Americans dead and his reelection chances, he& #39;s going to get more and more desperate and focus more on conspiracies and demands for more power.

This is how the cycle works. It& #39;s as predictable as a clock.

5/
Stop treating Trump like a normal president. He& #39;s an anti-president who only cares about power, profit, and streamlining corruption.

He& #39;s not going to get better. He& #39;s going to get so, so, so much worse. Learn the cycle and see it play out. He& #39;ll sacrifice all of us.
