Given President Trump’s strikingly low current approval rating - 35% - people may wonder why in his recent speeches and comments he continues his signature smirking and sneering, seemingly oblivious to most of the electorate’s dislike of his overt nastiness. The explanation, in my view, is that the president is aware that violence and upheaval of a sort highly threatening to most of humanity will soon distract attention from his policies of social dislocation and environmental ruin, disarming all opposition as people struggle to deal with anything beyond personal survival.
The goal of Trump and his cohorts in undermining our existence is to replace our world with a new one. The redrawn world will be AI-bioengineered and dominated by an immensely wealthy class. The rest of humanity will be either dead, incapacitated, or re-engineered as worker-bots.
