I doubt he has ever seen what harm he is causing others. His father beat that out of him a long time ago.
To answer your 2nd part this has been predicted decades ago. People who study history and population demographic know full well when a place can no longer support itself. We have passed that point some time ago and yet keep on going. We all should know what happens with Ponzi schemes and the present economic model of constant growth is a huge Ponzi scheme.

I'm not certain SCOTUS, and the military will back him anymore. He's a mess.

Color me skeptical of that. He would need most Military support.

@FearlessFly no, he would simply need them not to intervene.

@David1955 We disagree.

When has there been a coup (which is what is being described), with the military being 'quiescent' ?

I overheard a woman at the gym the other day saying that the way she sees it .....the virus is going to kill off a lot of people (as in - those who somehow "deserve to die" ) which will precipitate a total lockdown --- at which time the president will be able to declare martial law and the military will come in and "clean up" everything.....destroy that whole ANTIFA bunch who are rioting and looting and tearing down all those statues. I thought my head was literally going to explode. She didn't come up with this insane scenario by herself ----- this is what the faux news crowd is being spoon fed 24/7.

@Lavergne "the sky is falling"

@FearlessFly Fiji experienced a non violent coup not too long ago. If they can do it, we can, too?

@Amzungu "Fiji had seen four definitive coups in the past two decades"

Nonviolent perhaps, but to say the military wasn't involved is way too simplistic :

@FearlessFly I have no problem with military involvement if value of life is maintained.
