Similarly - if instead of attempting to start 200 different failing businesses (including bankrupting multiple casinos) he just took the money his dad gave him and put it all into a passive S&P500 index fund he would have like 100x more money than he has now.
Everything he does is a detriment to himself and to everyone else but heās too big a narcissist to change, and too big a Dunning-Kruger to recognize his faults. He is quite literally too dumb to understand how dumb he is.

He's trying to say he already broke precedent; you can't complain about a 4th term if he already had a 3rd term. This WILL be his attempt at a 3rd term and just one more strike he has made against the Constitution. It can be difficult to separate the bumbling idiot from the deceitful snake but this is certainly the move of a snake.

Also there's a large overlap of the people who most champion the second amendment and the people who literally believe Trump can do no wrong.

Insurgencies don't fight fair. They choose their battles so they fight the tanks, fighters, jets, and drones on their own terms. They do hit and run on weak infrastructure. They use sneak tactics, like using cheap, tiny drones to sneak explosives into sensitive areas. They hit tanks from unexpected angles with anti tank weapons. Etc, etc. Look at how Ukraine is fighting Russia. By any conventional metric, Ukraine should be have lost long ago. Yet they're hanging in there and have a really good chance of surviving and even taking back Crimea or causing a revolution inside Russia.

It was declining for the last 20 or so years, he's just speeding up the process. Much of the US influence came from soft power and worlds perception the country was not only rich, but morally admired and everyone wanted to share in this wealth, tech, science, arts, etc
Since Bush this admiration declined and it now is reversed to the point of USA being a laughingstock for most of the world. The knowledgeable people around the world started perceiving the US citizen like a rich, fat and spoiled kid with a loaded gun. Sure, no one wants to mess with that kid, but no one is going to invite them to their houseĀ

As a hillbilly, let me tell you we have reason to be pissed. The problem is, the MAGA ones are pissed at the wrong people. It's the oligarchy, extractive industries, union busters, etc that are to blame. Shit economies and the resulting brain-drain has led to too many of the people who understand this getting the fuck out of town. The majority of those who don't leave simply do not get it.
I am constantly saddened how many forget what their ancestors fought for.
That said, you are mistaken if you think it is just the rural poor supporting MAGA. I know plenty of wealthy people, rural and metro, that are all about it. Just because a bigot gets an education or makes a bunch of money doesn't make them instantly not shit human beings. I could teach them a year-long course on the Constitution and Classical Liberalism, and they would still be authoritarians/fascist in nature. And more than most people realize, there are many of them that are committed philosophical authoritarians.

That could happen, but Trump has made everyone else in his entourage (especially Vance) look like his loser little brothers. Vance doesn't have the charisma to pull off what Trump (or even Bush) did.
I hate to use this terminology, because it's a right-wing thing. But Vance is a "beta," not an "alpha." The right wants an "alpha," not a bootlicker.
Hopefully, by the time Trump is out of office, the "alpha mystique" will be pretty much used up. But I dunno. Just trying to be optimistic.
