    Same. At first I was like, “Well obviously they’re letting Trump be president to keep up appearances that our election system is functioning, even though it’s obvious something happened, but they’ll manage things behind the scenes.” I thought at some point some 3-letter agency was going to swoop in and course-correct the whole thing or at least prevent it from getting bad. Then that clusterfuck of an administration kept getting more and more dysfunctional and it was apparent that nobody was at the wheel. Whichever agency ordered the hit on Kennedy had apparently decided against solving this situation.

      If only LBJ was still alive. He could’ve stepped back up to the plate and ordered the hit.

      we know the pentagon lied to him and did what they wanted anyway, including colluding with their chinese counterparts, so it’s not as though he even controlled the one arm of the government he was supposed to. bureaucrats still hold the reigns.
