As Trump selects people for his Cabinet from “central casting,” he threatens freedom and the life and viability of the United States.

“Imagine that you are a foreign leader who wishes to destroy the United States,” Dr. Timothy Snyder writes. “How could you do so? The easiest way would be to get Americans to do the work themselves, to somehow induce Americans to undo their own health, law, administration, defense, and intelligence. From this perspective, Trump's proposed appointments—Kennedy, Jr.; Gaetz; Musk; Ramaswamy; Hegseth; Gabbard—are perfect instruments.” https://snyder.substack.com/p/decapitation-strike

Dr. Heather Cox Richardson quotes Snyder and pulls together more news about the dangers Trump’s picks pose in her “Letter from an American” yesterday. Among other things, she notes, “That so many of his appointees have histories of sexual misconduct is also striking, and underlines both that they share his determination to dominate others and that they do not think rules and laws apply to them.” https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/november-21-2024
