Trump Flooded The Zone - Now He’s Drowning In The Consequences
from Mallen Baker: Faultlines · host Mallen Baker
The theory, as expounded by Trump's former strategic adviser Steve Bannon, was that the Trump administration could utterly change America by 'flooding the zone' with so many radical actions that the opposition, and the media, would not be able to keep up. But what Bannon and others forgot was that actions have consequences. And a flood of action could mean a veritable tsunami further down the line. That seems to be exactly where we are, and could be the reason why Trump is coming across as increasingly unhinged. Let's discuss.
