Very insightful. There are a lot of independent experts on youtube, many of them are convincing, but looking into this guy a little deeper might be worthwhile.
I don't see this working if they are trying it, just thought it worth hearing.

This guy is sanewashing every MAGA talking point and dream.
Trump is a useful idiot for them. They want money, power, Black and brown people and women to be subjugated and disenfranchised (including the narrator), and for poor people to bend the knee. This includes their own supporters, to whom they throw the bone of Christofascism.
Their biggest problem is they have no idea how to replace Trump. Vance, Hegseth, Rubio, Bessent, and the rest of that clown show are not appealing to crossover voters. Because no matter how much they gerrymander and cheat, deport citizens and suppress the vote, they can't garner together a majority to replace Trump with any of those chucklefucks. Nobody likes them.
Their only hope is for Trump to die in office and be replaced by Vance, who would then become an incumbent. There's a general bias in favor of incumbency, but Vance is an unlikeable toad. It's not likely that he'd be able to build any kind of support. A lot of the MAGA crowd seems to think he's a douche. Plus his wife is brown-skinned, and that won't play well with their KKKonstituency. Neither would completely cancelling the '28 elections, although they might try. But even a lot of MAGA folks would see that as a bridge too far. Keep in mind: they want power, too. They think they deserve it. Keeping them enfranchised, even with an illusion of choice, keeps them from overrunning the Capitol again and turning their wrath toward the bench players in the Cabinet.
It won't matter much who Vance chooses to be his VP, and that choice won't be his, anyway. It'll be Stephen Miller's, and Miller never met a degree of fascism that he didn't like.
Trump's death would likely be covered up, too, at least for a while, in an effort to position themselves as well as possible. Look for multiple cancelled appearances and AI slop masquerading as the "truth", paraded as "facts" by Fox and Truth Social and all the other garbage that is essentially state media now.
Look for stuff to just be "signed" into law/executive order, too, with no ceremony and no press, as aides forge his signature and keep telling everyone that things are hunky dory. This will especially be the case if he doesn't die outright and instead has a long-overdue massive stroke or debilitating heart attack.
If you thought the Mitch McConnell coverup was/is bad, then you ain't seen nothin' yet. Fortunately for the press and the rest of us, this crowd has the brains of flatworms, the morals of alley cats, and the loyalty of a slew of Benedict Arnolds. Someone or other will talk, and probably with surprisingly little prompting or bribery.
And then either ICE will deport them on some ridiculous pretext or they'll turn up dead somewhere, 'cause that's how the Mob rolls.

Somebody claimed to spot a body double of Trump.
I didn't try to make anybody believe the video. I found it ingenious how he tied the pieces together. Trump is seeing how far he can go without triggering Iran's promise to destroy the infrastructure of Trump's toady countries. I figure he will overplay it and the real war will break out.
Jiang Xueqin is touted as being some sort of "modern Nostradamus", having correctly predicted that Trump would return to the presidency in 2024 and the the US would go to war with Iran. Neither of these was particularly improbable and we don't know if he made other prediction which didn't turn out. But predicting the future based on the past, while satisfying and impressive when accurate, leaves out important unknowns. And in the world as we know it today, I believe climate change and environmental degradation will turn out to be more influential on the behavior of nation states and more impactful on humanity as a whole than age-old rivalries between competing ideologies. I'm not calling this a "prediction", it's just my gut feeling. But consider the unprecedented economic consequences of, 1) , wildfire smoke*, microplastics, and PFAS on human health, 2) sea level rise on coastal populations, 3) prolonged hot temperatures** and drought on agriculture.
*"(...) Per-person smoke exposure in the United States has surged over the last decade, now four times as high as it was between 2006 and 2019. And even before the apocalyptic Canadian wildfire summer of 2023 — when Americans on the Eastern Seaboard were introduced to the eerie orange skies they had previously believed only possible in fire-prone places like California and Australia — more Americans were dying of wildfire smoke-related deaths east of the Mississippi than west of it.
"Those 2023 fires alone contributed to the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans, according to one estimate. All told, the monetary damages from wildfire smoke deaths are now expected to exceed those from all other climate impacts combined, as Robinson Meyer noted last week, and yet until very recently climate scientists and climate economists were not even counting them at all when projecting future costs from warming. That wasn’t because nobody knew to expect more fire; everyone knew to. It was just that we hadn’t really started to think about all that smoke. (...)"

@hightor,
You have to get the people out of government who don't care. That's most of our representatives, regardless of party.
AS FOR Nostradamus. Many (probably most) Nostradamus "quotes" and predictions that circulate online, in pop culture, or in viral posts are either outright made up, pieced together from unrelated lines, mistranslated, or retrofitted to events after they happen.

We're all going to regret letting Israel join with our military and government.
