    it must be comforting to think that there’s some bigger plan, and they can’t possibly be this stupid and incompetent

    (by now i do think that they’re this stupid and incompetent, and if it appears that there’s no plan going forward it is because there was never one. they’re malicious, see Zelensky visit, and can plan perhaps a week in advance, but nowhere near sophisticated enough to come up with this)

      Like any reality-show writing room, they only plan one episode in advance and only have a week’s worth of photography in mind.

      both things are true: they’re definitely this stupid and incompetent, and there’s some kind of plan. it’s bad to underestimate the loons (and I point to the last decade, breitbart, etc as evidence)
