There's really only one way to refer to Trump now. "The Enemy Within" [1]

Susan Rice laid it out very well in her interview with Nicole Wallace. Former UN Ambassador, former National Security Advisor Susan Rice. Let that sink it for a minute - who's saying what now.

Trump, or Trump's puppeteers, can only have one goal, based on the transparent actions they're taking. Weakening the US and our allies.

The most likely situation, based on the information we have and the actions taken by the parties, is that the executive branch of the United States is either willfully, or under coercion, intentionally weakening the United States to benefit our primary global adversaries.

This hypothesis isn't exactly a revelation for a regular visitor at DailyKos. But it is for many. An Occam's Razor view of the situation leads to one conclusion.

We are at condition "Enemy Within".

Republicans and right wing media have written the playbook on effective messaging tactics. Choose a message with a hook, tailor the verbiage for wide understanding (no really big words to try to sound smart, the message is about the recipient not the sender), and then REPEAT IT.

The message doesn't need to break through to the Trump cult. They are past reasoning, they are into "belief".

The other 70%. That's who needs to understand the criticality of the situation. Including our electeds. Both sides of the aisle. Now.

Time to earn that fucking flag pin you wear on your suit, or let the whole world know it has no place on your person.

Act like country depends on it.

Now.
