Oh I'm not doubting that all of this isn't orchestrated. The plan is transparent and obvious to all but his lapdog supporters. My only question is who is pulling the strings? Is it Trump himself, or the people behind him?

There was some discussion last year before the election on the Project2025 group on reddit. Perhaps a conspiracy theory, but the idea was that Trump would come out with all these really terrible policies to really push people to their breaking point. And at that time Vance would come along and say oh yeah that's bad, I'm relieving Trump as being unfit for office, and sure, we'll just have to look into these policies. It gives -them- a scapegoat, then they go back to business as usual but more behind-the-scenes. By that point they will have taken over most, if not all of the government. The theory at the time was this would all take about 6 months. The way things are going, I don't think it will take that long before "plan B" goes into effect. We'll see what actually happens, but at this point it's not outside the realm of possibility.
