      Well in this case it isn’t just Trump’s fault. He’s so effective at fucking over 95 percent of Americans because of decades of events. Trump gets 6-3 rulings with no official disclosures or reasoning because of acts that took place before he ever made it near the office. He’s actually dim enough that he doesn’t even likely know the people who did gave him the abilities he has right now, but then again he doesn’t care. Trump didn’t make it so you could buy politicians. He didn’t own all the broadcasts, he didn’t own the papers… Yet they all distort everything they can to make sure whats happening in office right now would happen. In an alternative universe had Trump died in 2001. Another person similar to him would have been put right where he is. Project 2024 would exist regardless of whether he had.

        The system that enabled two Trump presidencies is just like you explain, much bigger than him. But Trump as an individual matters, too - his decades in the public eye primed people to have paranormal relationships with him in a way few can match, and his appearance of wealth attracted a critical mass of amoral helpers that otherwise might have divided to multiple fiefdoms of infighting.
