Kinda reminds me of the rationale behind (drumroll – and in a deep loud voice) – HOMELAND SECURITY (boom, boom)…roving bands of heavily-armed Kevlar-clad multi-tattooed bodybuilders roaming the country in oversized black SUVs…
“I’ve created jobs!” No-o-o, you’ve created unnecessary confusion and expense. Did we NEED another level of management? In Washington? Really?
If our heavily-armed Kevlar-clad SUV-driving local police bodybuilders can’t handle it, the governor can call out his/her state’s National Guard, assuming some of them can find childcare providers…
Fomenting fear amongst the population – and a distrust of the press – is a specialty of this POtuS and a tactic worthy of Dr Goebbles, who said:
“It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient repetition and a psychological understanding of the people concerned that a square is in fact a circle. They are mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas and disguise.”
and
“The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly – it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over.”
So we’ve got a Schutzstaffel. All that’s missing is the hakenkreuz, a likeminded judiciary, and the beerhalls.
