      Neither stupidity nor malice are required to explain self-interest

      Yeah but see that’s what does not compute: in what scenario does any oligarch benefit from increasing the country’s nuclear risk? There’s a thousand and one ways to make a lot more money a lot more safely, quickly and quietly.

      That’s why I’m of the opinion that Trumsk don’t friggin’ know what they’re doing.

      Indeed, this was he strategy laid out a couple of days ago in another post: The government fires essential workers, a newly created private company hires them (Trump Nuclear), pays them 15% more, works them twice the hours, and then charges the government (the people) 5 times as much for their work—all while lowering quality and safety standards.
