The article warns against being distracted or overwhelmed by the chaotic environment created by President Trump and his administration. It argues that this chaos is a ploy to allow Trump to consolidate power and advance his agenda without opposition. The article highlights the Republican Congress's failure to act as a check, the silence of civil society, and emphasizes the importance of tracking and challenging unlawful actions. There are encouraging signs, such as judicial interventions and lawsuits from Democratic states countering Trump's overreach, indicating that checks and balances can still function.
Don't get distracted by the chaos President Trump creates; it’s a tactic to push for maximum executive power while undermining democracy and checks and balances.
