I saw on Threads a thread by a historian who likened what Trump is doing to similar tactics by past tyrants, such as Mussolini. According to this historian, Il Duce would:

1.) assign an odious, heinous task to a henchman

2.) henchman would fulfill that task to the T with overt cruelty

3.) public would recoil from the tactics

4.) Il Duce would sack the henchman to make it seem like he is a.) dismayed by the tactics; and b.) he is the hero

5.) assign a new henchman to continue the tactics.

Replacing Bovino with Homan is like ejecting the fox in the henhouse and putting the wolf in charge.

Trump is simply trying to manipulate appearances as always.

Normal orange pestilence behavior, he’s had a lifetime of practice at the shuck and jive. If the creep opens his mouth he is lying, remove for treasonous behavior, remove his regime and accomplices for the same, Period!

Life isn’t fair so what has fairness have to do with these executions and their consequences? I’m beginning to understand righteousness now more than ever.
