    So did Bush 2. I don't think you need to be smart to do that. You just need someone smart to run shit. Bush had Rove and Trump had Conway.

        True. But what he doesn't have is the backing of capital or the media. There just isn't enough to get the bourgeoisie and the general PMC to go along with it.

          What he probably doesn't have is enough control over the military.

          You're talking about media while his supporters are soaking up OANN on facebook (and worse for the younger ones).

            Those are both fair points but if the BLM protests and the right wing reactions to them taught me anything it's that most trump supporters are to fat and lazy to do the boogaloo. They would get in board if it's done for them but we're talking about his most devoted and those willing to take to the streets for nights on end. Without capital, a larger media support, and the military I don't see it happening. Then again, I thought Hillary would win in 2016 so there's no reason to think I'm right but that's my guess.

        Honestly, the newest Ep of TMBS got into this a bit but I think capital will find more opportunities without Trump, especially while giving some suggestion of stability amid the pandemic and coming economic crash. I'll link it here. It's worth a listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsACy2PDDLI
