To catch the drift of Trump's exacerbating mental-health drift, you needn't read any further than this dual, Rolling Stone headline:
Trump Asks Advisers for ‘Battle Plans’ to ‘Attack Mexico’ if Reelected
I read a bit further anyway and came across a reference to this position paper written by the Center for Renewing America, which is laughably called a "think" tank by some. This collection of Trumpian wackadoodles wrote that the indicted president, as commander in chief, would probably be well advised to encourage Mexico in joint military operations with the U.S.. But be forewarned, good neighbors, "it is vital that Mexico not be led to believe that they have veto power to prevent the US from taking the actions necessary."
When Trump was mind-blowingly bequeathed with the honor of being the world's largest military's commander in chief, his imbecilities were usually thwarted by some half-rational chief of staff or reasonably sober defense secretary.
Such would not be the case in a second Trump term. Not only have his periodically sane apostles deserted him, Trump has made it clear that those surrounding him, from here on out, will be only those certifiable for institutionalization.
And he would not leave off at the administration's top-level jobs. For he has also been clear about reinstating Schedule F. This presidential executive order could see the sacking of up to 50,000 (now) merit-promoted, career civil servants in favor of hiring loyal, sycophantic Trumpers.
From the policymaking top to bottom, then, another Trump administration just might, in fact, invade Mexico. In the timespace continuum of earthly wackadoodleness, we would transport ourselves to 1846.
Because with Trump as president and commander in chief again, all things — no matter how demented, crass, corrupt or contemptible — would surely become possible. Even probable.
