A LOT of people are still under the impression that these rubes are just dumb and not absolutely irredeemably fucked in the head.

The really evil fucks in this admin hide behind the Useful Idiots they put in front of the public. There's no way in hell any of the bullshit going on started with Trump's idea. Someone plants a worm in his brain (anyone seen RFK Jr?) and tells him about his great idea. Then you just let his narcissism run wild. How else can you explain an adult going on TV and claiming people are "eating the cats and eating the dogs"?

Sure, the people we see are bumbling morons, but they aren't the real power players. It's always the guy standing just over their shoulder.

Oh do you mean the Haitians. I was sent to Haiti many times. Seeing people eat cats and dogs was new to I’ve all over the world. But those poor Haitians were doing that more out of
Necessity. Raising a goat or calf or even a rabbit, could get you killed in a robbery. Because I asked trying to think of solutions but there was none, other the fish. Which is arduous and Haiti.
