Trump is politicising the US military with his #FortBragg performance.

Probability of #InsurrectionAct being invoked and #MartialLaw being imposed is now IMO above 60%.

#Midterms happening? IMO likely not.

"empowers political appointees to validate research outcomes, overriding independent expert review"

#PowerGrab #MonkeywrenchTheSystem #FTZWS

Does this violate the First Amendment?

@KimPerales

I'm understand this as a consequence of Trump doing #MonkeyWrenchTheSystem with his appointments, leading to cascade reactions that flood the zone with shit and fill his base's heads with shit.

#FTZWS #FTHWS

@grrlscientist
That's sure an extension on the position of Trump's government about violating American citizens #FirstAmendment free speech rights.

As far as #ClassifyTrump goes, that fits with #FTZWS, #DisplayFacism, #PunishOpponents & #PowerGrab.

@buermann
Flood the zone with shit in a #CascadeReaction.

Appreciating Indian journalism.

Here is 1 more category:
8. #PunishOpponents

Think this is needed after seeing #FTC being set on #MediaMatters.

(Others being:
1. ⁨#FTZWS⁩ Flood the zone with shit.
2. ⁨#FTHWS⁩ Fill their heads with shit. ("You tell them how it is.")
3. ⁨#MWTS⁩ Monkeywrench the system.
4. ⁨#PowerGrab⁩
5. ⁨#ObeyPutin⁩
6. ⁨#ThoseBucksStopHere⁩ Grift, pay-to-play, rackets.
7. ⁨#DisplayFascism⁩ Be an unashamed fascist in public.)

@freezenet

Wondering how to categorize this corrupt Trump action.

Like so much it fits in Flood The Zone With Shit.
And #DisplayFascism and #PowerGrab.
And somewhat in #ControlTheNarrative.

But it needs something more as well.

CrushOpponents? CreateFear? PunishOpponents?

Seeing corrupt actions by Trump that the above don't contain well enough?

Please let me know.

@randahl
Trump: "You tell them how it is and they just believe you. I don't know why, they just do."

The problem is that too many people do believe Trump (about most things - they wouldn't believe him about Covid vaccinations.)

This corrupt action by Trump seems different to #FTZWS Flood The Zone With Shit - maybe Fill Their Heads With Shit #FTHWS?

#ClassifyingTrump

Trump goes to some effort to flood the zone with shit #FTZWS.

He has found the response by the media and public useful. He benefits by disrupting rational discourse.

The other possible effects of a Trump FTZWS event can be missed in the heat of the moment. These have included #PowerGrab s and #MonkeyWrenchTheSystem.

The power grabs are the most dangerous I think.

We've seen the start of the havoc he's made by taking and using the power to declare tariffs.

And he'll stop there? rhetorical
