Carper, Coons & LBR well positioned for long term roles in the Trump Regime

Now that the Trump regime has consolidated the courts under his control, and has direct management of the nation’s intelligence operations, the calm quiet of Tom Carper and his two proteges in Congress has come into focus and begins to make a lot more sense.

For all of his faults, Tom Carper is able to see further down the road that most of us. It is a skill he brought to setting up Delaware as the usury-friendly state when governor. Similarly, Carper must have seen the Trump regime continuing and thriving well into the future. What profit could a clear thinking striver like Carper see in rocking the boat when a long (possibly multi-generational) Trump regime was practically a forgone conclusion given the cowardice of the Democrats and uselessness of the media?

There is no profit in it and that is obviously something that Coons and LBR picked up on as well. How else can you explain their preternatural calm in the face the end of our American experiment?

There is no explanation. They are calm because they see the future more clearly than the rest of us and that has given them a running start at planning for that future. They know that Trump will need the support of a faux congress to give his brand of fascism a patina of legitimacy. Carper, Coons and LBR must be high on Trump’s list when he considers how he is going to manufacture that legitimacy among DC-based talking heads and feckless political “analysts”.

It is sickening to confront this reality, but feeling sickened is going to be the least of our worries by next year at this time.
